Summary

This study evaluates the community-based health education program in improving early testing for COVID-19, increasing vaccination acceptability and enhancing emergency preparedness and self-protection measures against COVID-19 in HK. We established a partnership with several local community stakeholders and they will be responsible for recruiting participants and implementing educational programs. Half of the community collaborators will receive the core intervention package, and use it as education material. The other half will be encouraged to self-collect and send health information to the participants.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Community-based Health Education based on core intervention package

Community-based Health Education will potentially include the following three components: 1. A manual of emergency preparedness and self-protection against COVID-19 infection. The main content will include hand washing, mask wearing and social distancing guidelines. 2. Early testing. Participants will be trained on how to recognize the early symptoms of COVID-19 and appropriate practice to take in a response, and they will be provided with testing resources. 3. Knowledge of vaccines and their benefits and resources for vaccination. Collaborators should design and implement health programs based on the core intervention package.

BEHAVIORAL

Health Information Sharing Group

Collaborators are encouraged to collect and share health information to the participants. Shared information should be previewed by researchers.
