Rapid Acceleration for Diagnostics in Underserved Populations: Home Testing

This observational, cohort sub-studyis embedded within a larger public health intervention that distributes at-home, self-administered, SARS-CoV-2 antigen testing kits to households within pre-selected communitiesthrough the CDC.Within this sub-study, we will evaluate the socio-behavioral mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 community transmission, including social interactions, health behaviors, healthcare utilization, knowledge, disease burden, and feasibility of at-home testing. The study hypothesis is that positive at-home test results will be associated withaltered self-reported social interactions and altered health behaviors compared to negative test results. Surveys and questionnaires will be completed by participants through the smartphone app or via call center phone calls according to the schedule of events.Questionnaires will collect data on demographic characteristics, medical history and health status, COVID testing and symptoms, social interactions, knowledge of prevention strategies, infection risk, and attitudes towards vaccines.
