COVID-19 Opportunities

The Illinois network for RECOVER is looking at why some people recover from COVID-19 quickly and others don’t.   RECOVER is a national research initiative funded by NIH.  In Illnois, ILLInet was selected to focus on the people of Illinois.

The research proposal’s objective is to rapidly develop, implement, and continuously evaluate a targeted, multifaceted, COVID-19 vaccine messaging and promotion strategy among older adults, particularly those from the Latinx community.
