“…Two compounds (abacavir and THC‐COOH) were tested against analytical standards and therefore annotations were made with level one confidence. Although this is a relatively low number of detections as compared with similar studies in the region (Abafe et al, 2023; Mladenov et al, 2022) and around the world (Moneta et al, 2023; Wang et al, 2023), the sampling protocols (e.g., sample preconcentration) employed in those studies were different to the ones we employed, so other compounds may be present which are below the detection limits of the present study. Thus, it is important to emphasise that from our qualitative data it is not possible to conclude that the wastewater in Botswana is cleaner compared with other countries.…”
