A current Ebola virus outbreak strain from Guinea (Makona-WPGC07) was spiked to two end concentrations (10 2 and 10 6 TCID 50 mL −1 ) into a domestic wastewater (untreated sewage) sample. Microbial activity within wastewater matrices would be expected to contribute to more rapid inactivation of infectious viral particles; 36, 42 however, the true effect of microbial activity on Ebola virus persistence is unknown. 34 Further assessment is necessary to determine Ebola inactivation and dilution within this period and potential human exposure routes, including workers within the sewer system and Ebola virus persistence within wastewater sludges.	./cache/cord-347577-p0a2rboi.txt	./txt/cord-347577-p0a2rboi.txt
