Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
'low risk' for submaximal exercise testing in accordance with the risk stratification guidelines published by the American Heart Association and the American College of Sports Medicine (AHA/ACSM criteria). We will also determine the participant's current vaccine status (influenza, chickenpox, etc) and COVID-19 infection status. Infection status will be determined via self-report and Spike protein IgG titer levels We will simply ask the participant (self-report) when they received the vaccine and, if they know, which vaccine they received (e.g. Moderna or Pfizer for the COVID-19 vaccine). However, only participants that have been vaccinated (1-3 weeks after second dose) or tested positive (greater than 2-months symptom free) for COVID-19 by either PCR, antigen, or antibody testing will be eligible for Aim 2. After providing informed consent, all participants will undergo a comprehensive screening procedure to ensure that AHA/ACSM criteria are met.
