FYI: UMD's PreventCovid @ UMD Vaccine Study is the first trial designed to test if a COVID-19 vaccine blocks asymptomatic infection and transmission to others. Researchers in the School of Public Health are recruiting additional participants for this important project. Participants are guaranteed access to the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine and up to $1,000 compensation for participating. Enrollment is open to students (both undergraduate and graduate), ages 18-26, who have not been vaccinated and who have not previously contracted COVID-19. If you are interested in participating, please read the information below, provided by the researchers, and the attachments.

Dr. Neil Sehgal in the School of Public Health is leading the NIH sponsored PreventCOVID study at UMD.

PreventCOVID is a study on select university campuses across the US to learn whether the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine stops the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus: both initial infection and transmission in the university. By signing up, you can help answer some of the biggest questions for getting back to life and help rewrite the future.
