Summary

Background:

Inequalities in COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and death in under-studied, under-represented, and under-reported groups of people are severe. A growing number of studies have assessed the impact of individual risk factors. But few studies have assessed which factors are the greatest drivers of COVID-19 disparities from a wider perspective.

Objective:

To understand the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on minority women and their families to assist in developing community-based programs to help in recovery.

Eligibility:

Healthy people aged 18 and older who reside in North Carolina.

Design:

Participants will take a 45-minute online survey. The survey will cover their demographics, community, health, lifestyle, household, and environment.

Participants may choose to have tests. They may visit the Clinical Research Unit. They may also have a home visit for these tests. In some cases, they may mail samples to the study team in prepaid envelopes.

Participants may take an optional 15 minute survey about their reproductive history.

Participants may give a blood sample.

Participants may give a urine sample. They will fill out a log and return with their sample.

Participants may give saliva samples.

Participants may give toenail samples from each toe.

Participants may give dust samples. They will be given 8 alcohol swabs. Two will be for testing. They will be asked to swipe a total of 3 door frames. Each door frame should be in a different room of the house.

Participants may be given silicone wristbands to wear for 1 week. This is to measure their exposure to air pollutants.

Participants may be contacted in the future for follow-up. They may be contacted by phone, email, or letter.
