COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake Trial

The goal of this study is to assess the best COVID-19 vaccine uptake strategy among students, staff and household members that have not been vaccinated. There is a multitude of recommendations present that highlight different vaccination strategy; however, it is still unclear which strategy is best to increase COVID-19 vaccination rates. We will compare the effectiveness and acceptance of two different communication strategies among unvaccinated students, staff, and their household members.
