Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The investigators propose to use the iHealth® Rapid COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test. Per the EUA guidance, study participants will complete one test at a study location and receive one test to take home with instructions to complete it within 48 hours. Each testing site will have a private designated space for customers to self-collect and test themselves privately. The edutainment video will serve as a resource for information on accurate test performance. Test one will be done in a private setting and results entered into REDcap and will also be written on a testing card with contact information for the purpose of follow-up. For test number two the customer will self-collect within 48 hours (per the FDA EUA for this particular test) and results will be entered into RedCap.
Designed to discuss the testing process, the importance of getting tested and accessing care, and how COVID-19 has disproportionately affected the Black/African-American community.
