2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）正在全球蔓延，代表全球大流行，截至2020年6月5日，确诊病例超过6，600，000例，死亡人数超过390，000例，呈指数增长。于二零二零年上半年，由于COVID-19的广泛传播，研究集中于监测水、废水、污泥、空气及表面上的SARS-CoV-2，以评估受污染环境感染病毒的风险。到目前为止，已经报道了新型冠状病毒在人体外的存活时间很短（从几小时到几天，在优化的体外条件下），主要是因为需要一个可以同意病毒攻击的宿主生物体，以及由于病毒的外膜较弱。本文讨论了SARS-CoV-2病毒在环境中的释放策略，无论是通过动物和微生物基质，还是利用水、废水和废物中的有机物。我们的结论是，除了新型冠状病毒的高传染性外，采用适当的预防措施（例如，个人防护设备和消毒剂），由国家和国际卫生当局指定。(C)2020爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is spreading around the world, representing a global pandemic, counting, as of June 5th, 2020, over 6,600,000 confirmed cases and more than 390,000 deaths, with exponentially increasing numbers. In the first half of 2020, because of the widespread of the COVID-19, researches were focused on the monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 in water, wastewater, sludge, air, and on surfaces, in order to assess the risk of contracting the viral infection from contaminated environments. So far, the survival of the novel Coronavirus out of the human body has been reported for short time periods (from hours to few days, in optimized in vitro conditions), mainly because of the need of an host organism which could consent the viral attack, and due to the weak external membrane of the virus. SARS-CoV-2 viral shedding strategies in the environment, either through animate and unanimate matrices, or exploiting the organic matter in water, wastewater, and waste in general, have been discussed in the present article. We concluded that, besides the high infectuousness of the novel Coronavirus, the transmission of the pathogen may be efficiently contained applying the adequate preventive measures (e.g., personal protection equipments, and disinfecting agents), indicated by national and international health authories.
