We aim to understand the immune responses that emerge in response to this new viral pathogen in essential workers, first responders, and other groups at risk for COVID-19.
Researchers will measure how quickly these immune responses develop, how long they last, and how well they prevent future COVID-19 infections.
The question we want to answer is: how well do antibodies from previous infections provide protection from re-infection? The LA-SPARTA COVID-19 study helps to find answers that promote personal and public health.
Why should you participate?
-
Antibody testing is a great way to check that your vaccination induced a response.
-
We can all play an important part in promoting public health & healthcare equity.
-
Learning all we can from COVID-19 studies will help to prevent future pandemics.
-
Participating in biomedical research shows how you are contributing to the cure !
-
And if that is not enough… participants receive a gift card for each follow up visit.
