What is being tested?
The study is testing two types of messages: general information about SARS-CoV-2 and tailored communication specifically designed for people in rural areas, to see which is more effective at promoting antibody testing using saliva samples.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on communication methods rather than medical treatments, there are no direct side effects from interventions like drugs or vaccines. However, participants may experience discomfort or privacy concerns with home-based sample collection.
