Clinical Trial Description

This project is a 2-year study to investigate vaccine hesitancy and vaccine completion among vulnerable communities in the Southeastern Louisiana region. This study will be used to track COVID-19 vaccine completion among patients who seek testing, either as in-person or purchasing at home COVID testing, from pharmacies, urgent cares and clinics. The proposal will introduce a rapid vaccination education model to be delivered at the point of COVID-19 testing by pharmacy students, pharmacy technicians, nurse's aides and other health care personnel and includes monitoring for COVID-19 vaccine completion among enrolled patients. Investigators anticipate an increase in COVID-19 vaccine completion rates for those who participate in the rapid vaccination education model. ;
