Problem is 90% of India cities have no sewage treatment plants. Everything is discharged directly to water ways, lakes and rivers that Indians bathe, wash laundry and drink. Its like a petri dish for all virus.
Moreover 60% or 740Mils Indians still defecating outdoor without toilet access. Open urination is a norm in India, even in major cities.
So such sewage water testing isn’t going to work in India totally. Nevertheless, with 33% of Delhi & 85% Pune population already have COVID antibody (infected), India will reach Herd immunity soon.
