Abstract [en]

Human adenovirus (HAdV) type F41 has been identified as a possible cause of the non-A-to-E hepatitis outbreak. This study uses wastewater monitoring to track HAdV F40 and F41, supporting clinical investigations and providing insights into the pathogen's role in the outbreak. Given the limited clinical monitoring in Sweden of HAdV-F40/41, this approach also helps estimate the true infection burden of this pathogen during the outbreak. This study developed three qPCR assays for the hexon, penton, and fiber genes of HAdV F40 and F41. The hexon assay was F41-specific, while the fiber assay detected multiple HAdV-F strains. Comprehensive monitoring of HAdV-F40/41 levels in Stockholm's wastewater was conducted over 1.5 years, capturing the period before, during, and after the outbreak. A significant infection wave was observed in spring 2022, with strains beyond lineage 2 contributing to the outbreak. Moreover, simultaneous SARS-CoV-2 surveillance revealed that HAdV-F infections peaked at different times from COVID-19, but the HAdV-F wave aligned with the relaxation of pandemic restrictions. These findings offer valuable insights for future HAdV-F investigations and confirm its role in the non-A-to-E hepatitis outbreak.
