As wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) is increasingly used to track community-level disease trends, it is important to understand how pathogen signals can be altered by phenomena that occur within sewersheds such as inflow and infiltration (I&I). Our objectives were to characterize I&I across a rural sewershed and assess potential impacts on viral (rotavirus, norovirus GII, and SARS-CoV-2), fecal indicator (HF183, the hCYTB484 gene specific to the human mitochondrial genome, and crAssphage), and antimicrobial resistance (intI1, bla
