There is a study from Barcelona, where scientists checked out archived wastewater samples on SARS-CoV-2. Here is what they found: "SARS-CoV-2 was detected in Barcelona sewage long before the declaration of the first COVID-19 case, indicating that the infection was present in the population before the first imported case was reported. Sentinel surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater would enable adoption of immediate measures in the event of future COVID-19 waves." www.medrxiv.org/.../2020.06.13.20129627v1.full.pdf

The nursing home I worked at had a high number of respiratory infections in November through January and they people who were tested were negative for Flu even though they had flu like symptoms. I know several workers think we had Covid at that time but no one in our facility has been given an antibody test.

This is the way to go with regards to especially health research. The scientific method needs to be improved upon. First, one should - if possible - pursue a wide series of systematic observations for many variables which may seem or actually be unrelated. For instance, if one could gather enough voluntary information, it may be possible to figure out the true cause of heart disease {probably it is some kind of hidden "stealth" infection or perhaps a mycoplasma [CASPERS (Chronic Autoimmune Stealth Pathogens Evolved from Resistant bacteria Syndrome), restorativemedcenter.com/stealth-pathogens ]}. Perhaps one could take a massive number of stool samples of those who have and who haven't had a heart attack. Then the gut bacteria could be analyzed. There is at least one AI program which takes data and can reach conclusions to the extent that it is able to "rediscover" scientific laws (e.g. https://www.sayeureqa.com/ ).
