dc.description	The National SARS-CoV-2 Wastewater Surveillance Programme (NWSP) has been established through a partnership with Uisce Éireann (formerly Irish Water), the National Virus Reference Laboratory (NVRL), University College Dublin (UCD), the HSE Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC) and the HSE Health Intelligence Unit (HIU). The NWSP samples 30 wastewater catchment areas across Ireland on a weekly basis and analyses for the presence of SARS-CoV-2, with the exception of Ringsend in Dublin which is sampled twice a week. These 30 wastewater catchment areas (see Figure 3) cover 70% of the population connected to public wastewater treatment facilities and are spread throughout every region of Ireland. Weekly SARS-CoV-2 sequencing started in November 2023 on one sample from the Ringsend wastewater treatment plant.	en_US
