Description
Abstract Text
The novel SARS-CoV-2 continues to spread in the United States, with almost 5
million confirmed cases of and over 150,000 deaths. Given observed disparities
in morbidity, hospitalization, and mortality across race, ethnicity, and
socioeconomic status, there is a great need to increase testing access and
uptake with rapid return of test results. We propose a community health worker
(CHW)-led approach to facilitate COVID-19 testing for underserved populations,
with a focus on increasing testing access, uptake, and impact among Latinx,
African American, Filipino, and immigrant communities using different testing
implementation strategies. Our project will utilize existing COVID-19 contact
tracing and community partner infrastructure to reach individuals aged 12 and
above exposed or at high-risk of COVID-19 exposure who may be less able to test.
We will use a cluster randomized crossover trial to test mobile and home-based
testing strategies for increasing testing uptake among contacts, referred
high-risk friends and family, and the broader community. Our specific aims are
to: 1) Implement COVID-19 testing integrated into community health worker
contact tracing home visits and compare the subsequent uptake of testing for
referred high-risk friends and family in a mobile testing vs. home-based testing
approach; 2) Using a community-led rapid cycle research process, identify
effective strategies to promote uptake of COVID-19 testing through mobile/pop-up
testing for Latinx, African American, Filipino, and immigrant populations
exposed or at high risk of exposure to COVID-19 who are not accessing testing;
3) Gather CHW and community insights to establish best practices for future
scale-up and sustainability. We expect to test over 40,000 individuals through
these efforts. The project will contribute to health disparity reductions in
COVID-19 morbidity and mortality and produce high impact through the our core
strengths in drawing on local knowledge, the team’s existing community
partnerships, use of culturally competent community healthcare workers,
point-of-care rapid and inexpensive testing, and the use of real-time geospatial
data from our contact tracing program to prioritize locations for mobile pop-up
testing. Our focus on underserved populations with high COVID-19 exposures
without prior testing access will inform both future testing and vaccination
efforts.
Public Health Relevance Statement
This project will create effective COVID-19 testing uptake strategies that focus
on Latinx, African American, Filipino, and immigrant communities who are exposed
or at high risk of exposure to COVID-19 but have not accessed testing. The
project will contribute to health disparity reductions in COVID-19 morbidity and
mortality and produce high impact by engaging community health workers, existing
community partnerships, and rapid point-of-care testing.
