Abstract	Aim: To determine the infectious danger of medical waste from patients with COVID-19, by examining them for the presence of coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Materials and Methods: Regulatory – legal acts, foreign editions, results of the laboratory researches that we received served as materials for carrying out research. While researching such methods were used: descriptive, bibliographic, analytical, epidemiological, laboratory diagnostics, statistical. Results: The study confirmed the presence of RNA of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in 5 selected samples from protective masks of patients with COVID-19 (8.9%) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus was not detected in samples taken from medical masks. Separate studies of wastewater from the infectious disease hospital of Ostroh General Hospital and from the city sewer network for the presence of coronavirus SARS-Cov-2 were conducted. SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus was not detected in the selected samples by PCR. Conclusions: The results of the study confirm the infectious potential of medical waste, mostly wrong treatment.
