Community-Based Health Education Programs for the Early Detection of, and Vaccination Against, COVID-19 and the Adoption of Self-Protective Measures of Hong Kong Residents
A Multicenter, Cluster-Randomized, Active-Controlled, Single-Blind Trial of Community-Based Health Education Programs for the Early Detection of, and Vaccination Against, COVID-19 and the Adoption of Self-Protective Measures of Hong Kong Residents
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
This health education program is based on a Community-based Participants Research (CBPR) approach, which is a partnership approach that equitably involves community members and researchers in all aspects of the research process. Given the different cultural, professional or living background of Hong Kong residents, we think this simple, flexible and sustainable approach will effectively mitigate the COVID-19 risk in HK society,
An academic-community collaboration platform with several nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), companies and schools will be established before this study. They will work together to recruit participants, design and implement a series of educational programs aimed at controlling the spread of COVID-19 in the community.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Community-Based Health Education Group
The collaborators will design the Community-based education approach (based on the core intervention package).
Collaborators will be required to submit a brief standardized proposal to the academic investigators for review and approval, to ensure that all intervention programs have the same core intervention content and can be implemented appropriately.
Collaborators will be able to use any reasonable strategies, such as social media platforms, information technology, posters, leaflets, and videos, to implement the programs .
The use of incentives will be encouraged to improve participation.
Each programs will last for 3 months.
A booster session will be conducted at the mid of the intervention.
|
Community-based Health Education will potentially include the following three components:
Collaborators should design and implement health programs based on the core intervention package. |
Active Comparator: Health Information Sharing Group
The collaborators will design the community-based education approach and deliver health information to the participants.
Researchers will provide some information, while collaborators need to self-collect the rest.
Collaborators also need to submit a proposal to ensure the feasibility of intervention programs and the accuracy of health information.
Collaborators can use any reasonable strategies to implement the programs .
The use of incentives will be encouraged to improve participation.
Each programs will last for 3 months.
A booster session will be conducted at the mid of the intervention.
|
Collaborators are encouraged to collect and share health information to the participants.
Shared information should be previewed by researchers.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Vaccination rates
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The number of participants who received a new dose of COVID-19 vaccine over the total number of participants.
|
3 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The knowledge towards COVID-19 vaccine
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The knowledge towards COVID-19 vaccine will be measured by 15 items in the self-administered questionnaire.
All the items are binary- choice Items (1=Ture, 2= False).
The total score ranged from 15 to 30 and a higher score indicates poorer knowledge towards COVID-19 vaccine.
|
3 months
|
The hesitancy towards COVID-19 vaccine
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The hesitancy towards COVID-19 vaccine will be measured by Chinese version of adult Vaccine Hesitancy Scale (aVAS), which includes 10 items of 5-point Likert scale, ranging from least hesitant (1) to most hesitant (5).
In total 3 of aVAS are negatively worded and 7 are positively worded.
The total score of aVAS is 50 with a score higher than 25 indicated high vaccine hesitancy.
|
3 months
|
Perceived confidence of COVID-19 vaccine
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The confidence of COVID-19 vaccine will be measured by 11 items with 5-point Likert scale with "strongly disagree", "disagree", "neither agree nor disagree", "agree" and "strongly agree".
The total score ranges from 11 to 55 with higher score indicating higher confidence of COVID-19 vaccine..
|
3 months
|
Perceived barriers of receiving COVID-19 vaccine
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The perceived barriers of COVID-19 vaccine will be measured by 4 items with 5-point Likert scale with "strongly disagree", "disagree", "neither agree nor disagree", "agree" and "strongly agree".
The total score ranges from 4 to 20 with higher score indicating higher perceived barriers of COVID-19 vaccine..
|
3 months
|
The amount of early testing
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The amount of early testing will be measured by self-reported number of early-testing with rapid antigen testing (RAT) in a month.
|
3 months
|
The levels of acceptability for early testing
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The levels of acceptability for early testing will be measured by 3 items with 5-point Likert scale with "strongly disagree", "disagree", "neither agree nor disagree", "agree" and "strongly agree".
The total score ranges from 3 to 15 with higher score indicating higher acceptability of early testing.
|
3 months
|
The frequency of washing hands with soap or hand sanitizer
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The amount of early testing will be measured by self-reported number of hand-washing behaviors with soap or hand sanitizer per day in the past week.
|
3 months
|
The frequency of washing hands with alcohol-based hand rub
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The amount of early testing will be measured by self-reported number of hand-washing behaviors with alcohol-based hand rub per day in the past week.
|
3 months
|
The knowledge of proper self-protection
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The knowledge of proper self-protection correctly will be measured 13 items in the self-administered questionnaire.
All the items are binary- choice Items (1=Ture, 2= False).
The total score ranged from 13 to 26 and a higher score indicates poorer knowledge of self-protection.
|

Time Frame: 3 months
|
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-2) will be used to measure the level of anxiety.
|

|
Depression status
Time Frame: 3 months
|
The Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) will be used to measure the depression status.
|
3 months
|
