简要总结

The goal of the present study is to evaluate a pilot intervention (LinkUP) to improve the uptake of COVID-19 testing and vaccination among PWID in San Diego County. Results will be shared with RADxUP consortium members, policymakers and program planners in California and across the US and used to estimate effect sizes for a future efficacy trial. Our study will inform efforts to leverage any of the 185 SSPs around the US as 'touchpoints' to reach marginalized communities, strengthening the nation's pandemic preparedness infrastructure to reduce COVID-19 health disparities.

详细描述

Together with our community partner, the Harm Reduction Coalition of San Diego's (HRCSD) OnPoint, a mobile safe syringe program (SSP), we will evaluate develop and evaluate an intervention to improve uptake of COVID-19 testing and vaccination. HRCSD's OnPoint will rely on UCSD's IRB review and approval for all aspects related to oversight of study and intervention implementation. Completion of primary endpoint data analyses was achieved on April 13, 2023. Study final completion date is January 31, 2024. Our Study Aims are :

  1. To adapt an existing behavioral intervention incorporating motivational interviewing (MI) to improve uptake of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis among people who inject drugs (PWID), by replacing the educational content with information intended to improve uptake of COVID19 testing and COVID19 vaccination.
  2. To pilot test the intervention in Aim 1 (called LinkUP) at OnPoint's 4 mobile SSP locations across San Diego County. We expect that the LinkUP intervention will be acceptable to PWID and considered feasible and sustainable by OnPoint staff and the project's Community Scientific Advisory Board (CSAB).

研究组 & 干预措施

LinkUP Active intervention

Experimental

The counselor will present basic evidence-based COVID-19 information on SARS-CoV-2 biology and epidemiology, testing and the safety and efficacy of available COVID-19 vaccines. The counselor will also address COVID-19 misinformation (e.g., that COVID is no worse than the flu), and COVID-19 disinformation (e.g., that COVID vaccines include a tracking device).

The LinkUP active intervention combines education, motivational interviewing (MI), problem-solving, and ongoing support from peer counselors. Through an open discussion with one of OnPoint's peer counselors who are trained in MI, the counselor will present evidence-based COVID-19 information. Next, the counselor will attempt to identify the participant's concerns about COVID-19 and vaccination in an attempt to tip their decisional balance.

干预措施: COVID-19 education (Behavioral)

LinkUP Control Condition (didactic intervention)

Placebo Comparator

As described above, the control condition is a one-way sharing of COVID-19 information presented by an OnPoint counselor. The counselor will be instructed to answer any questions the participant may have but will not engage in motivational interviewing counseling. The same educational materials used in the LinkUP intervention module will be used for this session and it will be completed within 45 minutes.

干预措施: COVID-19 education (Behavioral)
