Summary

This trial tests whether training community leaders can help more Black adults with rheumatic conditions get the COVID-19 vaccine and boosters.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Black individuals aged 18-85 with rheumatic diseases who want to help their community understand COVID-19 vaccines better. They must speak English, identify as Black/African American/African descent, and have a social network. Members of this network should be adults not fully vaccinated against COVID.
What is being tested?
The study tests two types of training given to Popular Opinion Leaders (POLs) in the Black community on the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines and boosters. The goal is to see if these trainings can increase vaccine uptake and reduce hesitancy within their networks.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on educational interventions rather than medical treatments, there are no direct side effects from medications or vaccines being studied here.
