This platform protocol is designed to be flexible so that it is suitable for a wide range of settings within health care systems, for remote settings, and in community settings where it can be integrated into COVID-19 programs and subsequent treatment plans. This protocol is a prospective, multi-center, multi-arm, randomized, controlled platform trial evaluating potential interventions for PASC-mediated cognitive dysfunction. The hypothesis is that PASC associated dysfunction in cognitive domains, such as executive function and attention, may be improved by interventions that selectively focus on enhancing those domains.

The hypothesis is that PASC-associated dysfunction in cognitive domains, such as executive function and attention, may be improved by interventions that selectively focus on enhancing those domains. This design seeks to evaluate each intervention relative to the Active Comparator. The BrainHQ (alone) arm is important because the intervention is commercially available, accessible, relatively inexpensive, and does not require trained personnel to administer. BrainHQ has been also been proven effective in other studies of cognitive dysfunction such as studies in aging, mild cognitive impairment, traumatic brain injury, among others. The BrainHQ + PASC CoRE arm and the BrainHQ + tDCS arms are suspected to provide cognitive improvements beyond BrainHQ alone through different mechanisms. Both PASC CoRE and tDCS have extensive prior use and have demonstrated utility in improving aspects of cognitive function in other clinical settings..

The adaptive immune response, consisting of antiviral T and B cells, is critical for providing protection against viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, both during an active infection and later following a subsequent exposure. They can both also potentially contribute to pathogenesis if they are overstimulated. Despite these advances in knowledge, there are still significant gaps in understanding of what constitutes a protective or immunopathologic immune response and its durability. Significant knowledge gaps also remain pertaining to the early recognition of COVID patients with increased risk of clinical deterioration who require continued hospitalization and the use of more intensive treatments designed to improve outcomes. Data from non-COVID patients with MI show that platelet surface expression of FcγRIIa, the low-affinity receptor for the Fc fragment of immunoglobulin (Ig) G, identifies patients at high and low risk of subsequent cardiovascular events. Platelet expression of FcγRIIa is increased by interferon γ20 that is significantly elevated in severe COVID-19 infections. The high prevalence of arterial thrombosis among COVID-19 patients and the central role of thrombosis in respiratory failure support the hypothesis that elevated platelet expression of FcγRIIa will identify COVID patients at increased risk of thrombotic complications and clinical deterioration. In addition to the potential role of platelet activation in thrombosis associated with COIVD-19, the endothelium may also play a significant role. The investigators hypothesize that elevated EMPs in plasma will identify patients at high risk of thrombosis and clinical deterioration. To begin to address the knowledge gaps above and obtain preliminary data for future large grant submission, the investigators propose a small, prospective, single-center cohort study that will enroll patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection and exhibiting a range of disease severity. Biosamples will be obtained and used to study T and B cells, antibody repertoire, and durability of protective immunity, and also to quantify platelet expression of FcγRIIa and circulating EMPs, as described in the protocol.

The primary objectives of the study are: To assess the safety profile of the study vaccines in each study intervention group. To assess the neutralizing antibody profile after primary series vaccination in SARS-CoV-2-naïve adults. To demonstrate that a booster dose of monovalent or bivalent SARS-CoV-2 vaccine given to adults previously vaccinated with an authorized/approved COVID-19 vaccine induces an immune response that is non-inferior to the response induced by a twodose priming series with the monovalent vaccine, and superior to that observed immediately before booster. The secondary objectives of the study are: To assess the neutralizing and binding antibody profiles after primary series vaccination at pre-defined time points during the study. To assess the neutralizing and binding antibody responses of booster vaccination. To describe the occurrences of laboratory-confirmed symptomatic COVID19 after primary series and booster vaccination. To describe the occurrences of serologically-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection after primary series vaccination.

Latinx communities are disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with Spanish-speaking Latinx communities carrying even heavier burdens of infection, hospitalization, and mortality. Major barriers to COVID-19 testing and vaccination exist, and a profound need remains to understand and address the social, ethical, and behavioral implications (SEBI) of COVID-19 testing and vaccination within Latinx communities. Our community-academic partnership proposes a rigorous mixed-methods, community-based participatory research study to better understand the SEBI of COVID-19 testing and vaccination and to refine and test a novel and culturally congruent intervention that integrates two evidenced-based strategies - peer navigation and mHealth - to increase COVID-19 testing and vaccination within Spanish-speaking Latinx communities.

To reach herd immunity for COVID-19, experts estimate that 70% of the population will need to be vaccinated. However, vaccination rates have begun to slow down in the United States. The investigators will partner with Philadelphia to launch a COVID-19 vaccination sweepstakes, in which residents will be eligible to win if they have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine prior to a given drawing. Drawings will be held every two weeks; multiple prizes of various sizes will be awarded in each drawing. Half of the prizes in each size category in each drawing will be awarded to residents of a zip code that is randomly selected from a pre-defined list of under-vaccinated zip codes (this zip code will be announced at the start of each 2-week drawing period), the other half will be awarded to residents outside of that selected zip code. The investigators will analyze vaccination rates in Philadelphia as compared with neighboring regions before, during, and after the specified time period, as well as analyze vaccination rates in the three selected zip codes compared to the other zip codes that could have been targeted (the residual set of under-vaccinated zip codes) to determine the effectiveness of the sweepstakes at encouraging vaccinations.

Given the likelihood of COVID-19 remaining an endemic disease among high-risk populations, establishing effective mitigation interventions will be critical to stemming community transmission. Criminal justice-involved individuals are extremely important to reducing community-based SARS-CoV-2 transmission due to their increased risk of contracting SARS-CoV-2 while incarcerated and their likelihood of living in congregate settings after incarceration. The investigators will evaluate an onsite Point-of-Care SARS-CoV-2 testing and education strategy in a corrections-focused community-based organization and its impact on improving testing uptake, mitigation behaviors(e.g. mask wearing, hand hygiene, social distancing, vaccine uptake when available), and cost-effectiveness.
