Sudden cut to wastewater testing 'frustrating' for researcherNewsDuration 3:04The Ontario government has scrapped a program that tested wastewater to monitor the level of COVID-19 in the population. The program evolved to test for influenza A and B and for drug use in the water system. This decision will shut down research at the University of Waterloo. Mark Servos, a biology professor at the Univeristy of Waterloo and the Canada research chair in water quality protection, sat down with CBC K-W's The Morning Edition host Craig Norris to talk about the impact the cancellation will have on what has been a successful program.
