Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators will randomise individuals from family doctors' lists of patients that are at risk of severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and that are not registered as having taken the vaccine against the disease. The patients will be randomised to receiving a phone call from their family physician where the participants are given the opportunity to raise questions they might have around vaccination. The investigators will assess whether this has an impact on vaccine uptake.
