Volunteers needed for study designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the COVID-19 bivalent booster

The Arcaro and Osborne labs in the Veterinary & Animal Sciences Department are collaborating with the IALS Clinical Testing Center (ICTC) to conduct a study designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the COVID-19 bivalent booster and are seeking volunteers to donate a few drops of blood (via a small finger prick) and saliva.  Samples will be collected at four different time points with the first sample collected prior to the bivalent boost and the remaining three samples collected at timepoints post boost.  Interested participants may enroll here or by scanning the QR code.
