October 27, 2021 – CRP Study Update – Thanks for participating!
With the COVID-19 Community Research Partnership (CRP) study ending this week, we want to take the time to say thank you one last time and share some results. We truly appreciate your dedication to helping us in the fight against COVID-19.
As a reminder, you will receive your last survey on Saturday, October 30.
Study Results and Publications
Your participation has contributed valuable information that has allowed us to study many topics, including:
- Symptoms of COVID-19 infection
- Mask wearing behavior and risk of COVID-19 infection
- Attitudes towards receiving the COVID-19 vaccine
- How long antibodies last after infection or vaccination
- Breakthrough infections
Visit the National study website to learn more about published results. As more results become available, we will also share them on the Tulane study website. We encourage you to bookmark the sites so you can stay connected with us after the study ends.
Questions?
The study call center is available to answer questions through the end of the month. Starting November 1, please email the Tulane research team at tulanefightscovid@tulane.edu.
Thank you for all your contributions to this study. Without you, this important work would not have been possible!
October 5, 2021 – Study Ending October 30
You have provided valuable information that helps researchers and clinicians learn about how the virus is spread, who has been infected, how the virus is impacting the lives of people in our community, and the uptake and usefulness of vaccinations.
We have learned a lot and come a long way together. Without you, this important work would not have been possible.
The COVID-19 CRP study will end this month.
As the study comes to an end, here is what you need to know:
- Surveys end Saturday, October 30. Please continue to complete the daily surveys this month. You will receive your last survey on October 30.
- Test kits need to be mailed by Friday, October 15. Test kit participants, you should have already received your last test kit. If you have any unreturned test kits, please send them back before October 15. If you reconsented and returned at least 3 test kits since June, you will receive another email with the gift card by the end of the month.
Stay tuned for study results.
Want to see the impact of your participation? We will email you more information about study results later this month. You can stay up to date – even after the study ends – by visiting the Results & Data page and the National study website. As results become available and are published, we will share them on the websites so you can see what we’ve accomplished thanks to your participation!
It is very important that we collect all daily surveys and test kit data until the end of the study. Please stick with us by continuing to complete the surveys (through October 30) and returning your test kits (by October 15).
Thank you again for your participation!
