description Some environmental aspects are being increasingly studied in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, studies focusing on wastewater could be used for early warning, based on wastewater based epidemiology precepts. However, sewage sludge has been poorly studied in this regard up to now. In addition, soils have not been considered in publications related to SARS-CoV-2. In this piece, some comments are included to suggest a discussion regarding the eventual convenience of considering future studies focusing on soils receiving the spreading of wastewater and sewage sludge, as well as on plants growing on them.
