Addressing Vaccine Acceptance in Carceral Settings

This study aims to improve COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among people in correctional facilities in Pennsylvania. Researchers will test different behavioral interventions chosen by the ADVANCE Steering Committee. These interventions will be quickly put into practice and tested one at a time at different levels: for patients, providers, practices, and prisons. The main goal is to see how many people accept the COVID-19 vaccine up to 12 weeks after an intervention. Anyone aged 18 or older who is incarcerated in the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections can be included in the study. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

  • COVID-19 vaccine acceptance rateup to 12 weeks post intervention

    COVID-19 vaccine acceptance rate amongst incarcerated people and correctional staff assessed as the number of participants that receive a COVID-19 vaccine dose or complete the COVID-19 vaccine series by electronic health record (EHR) or self report. This will apply to anyone not fully up-to-date with the full immunization series, which is defined as inclusive of boosters.
