Summary

The investigators propose a mixed-methods intervention design to evaluate the acceptability of epidemic intelligence (EpI-Net) intervention using Community Engagement (CE) principles to promote COVID-19 testing and prevention practices in socially vulnerable communities in PR. The team hypothesizes that the integration of lay community leaders, trained in the use of COVID-19 prevention technology tools (EpI-Net), will result in increased COVID-19 testing uptake and prevention practices among the targeted socially and epidemiologically vulnerable communities in Puerto Rico.
