Background: The COVID-19 pandemic infected and killed African Americans at higher rates than other Americans. Researchers want to understand why. Objective: This natural history study will look at how genetic, environmental, and social factors may predict or affect COVID-19 in African Americans. Information from this study will be combined with data from the GENE-FORECAST study. Eligibility: African Americans who were previously enrolled in GENE-FORECAST. Design: The study includes a telephone interview and 1 visit to the NIH clinic. Participants may engage in either one or both of these activities. The telephone interview will last 20 minutes. Participants will talk about their experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. The clinic visit will last up to 4 hours. Participants will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests. They will be tested for COVID-19. A long swab will be inserted into a nostril to get a fluid sample from the back of the nose. They will have noninvasive tests of their blood vessels. One device used is a pen-like probe placed lightly on the wrist. Another is a rubber sleeve placed around a finger while a blood pressure cuff is used on the arm. Participants will have a test to measure the electrical activity in their heart. Stickers attached to wires will be placed on their chest, arms, and legs. Participants will answer more questions about COVID-19. They will talk about their health behavior. They will talk about their family's health and the neighborhood they live in. Other questions will ask how they feel, live, work, and play....

Background: COVID-19 is an infection caused by a coronavirus. It can affect different parts of the body. For most people, it causes fevers or trouble breathing. Some people can have symptoms long after they recover. Researchers want to learn if there are signs of changes in the nervous system that may be related to COVID-19. Objective: To test the nervous system (the brain and nerves) in people who have had COVID-19 yet still have certain symptoms even after recovering. Eligibility: People age 18 and older who had COVID-19 and still have neurologic symptoms after they recovered from the initial infection. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical record review. Participants will have a neurological exam. They will complete pen-and-paper tests of their memory and thinking. They will complete a smell test with 'scratch-and-sniff' booklets. They will give blood samples. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Soft padding or a coil will be placed around their head. They will lie on a table that slides in and out of the MRI scanner. They will get a contrast dye through an intravenous (IV) catheter. Participants blood pressure, blood flow, skin temperature, sweating, and breathing will be monitored. Participants will have an electrocardiogram to measure heart function. Participants will blow into a mouthpiece for several seconds. Participants will lie on a table that has a motor. The motor tilts the table. Participants will have blood drawn through an IV as the table tilts. Participants will have a lumbar puncture. A small needle will be inserted into the spinal canal to obtain fluid. Participants may repeat some tests 8 weeks to 1 year later.

This megastudy is a massive randomized controlled trial. By randomizing participants to 10 different intervention conditions simultaneously, the investigators will be able to compare the effectiveness of different interventions to one another and to a control group (in which individuals will only receive the usual communications from their partner organization) to identify which interventions significantly increase vaccination rates. Pharmacy customers will be randomly assigned to receive one of the interventions designed by team scientists to encourage vaccination or to a control group. The baseline intervention will be based on the top-performing SMS intervention identified in the investigators previous megastudies on encouraging vaccination (Milkman et al., 2021b, 2022). Pharmacy customers will receive SMS messages conveying that a COVID booster vaccine is reserved or waiting for them at the pharmacy. Additional behavioral science messaging strategies will be tested by building off of this baseline intervention.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir) for the possible treatment of COVID-19. Patients with COVID-19 who have more difficulty in fighting against infections have a higher chance of severe illness. Such patients may benefit from longer treatment durations compared to the standard treatment regimen. The study is seeking participants who: - Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection - Are Immunocompromised - Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 5 days prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization. In addition, this study will also evaluate the efficacy and safety of a second treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir in people who experience that their COVID-19 is flaring up within 14 days of having taken a 5-day treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir. For this group, the study is seeking participants who: - Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection - Experience a worsening of signs/symptoms after completing an initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir - The worsening of COVID-19 symptoms must occur within 14 days after completion of the initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir - Are Immunocompromised - Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 48 hours prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization. All participants will be taking the study medicine for either 5, 10, or 15 days. The study medication will be taken by mouth 2 times a day. Participants will take part in this study for about 24 weeks. The first dose of study medication is taken at the study site and the rest at home. Selected participants will need to visit the study site at least 10 times during the study.

This trial is composed of a randomized, double-blind, active controlled component (Part A) and an open-label, single-arm component (Part B) conducted in parallel. Part A is designed to compare vaccination with a single 100 µg dose of ABNCoV2 to a single 30 µg adult booster dose of Comirnaty (active control) in adult subjects who either previously completed primary vaccination (Cohort 1) or have already received 1 booster dose (Cohort 2) of SARS-CoV-2 locally authorized vaccine(s), and whose last locally authorized SARS-CoV-2 vaccination was at least 3 months prior to the screening visit. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either ABNCoV2 or Comirnaty. Part B is designed to collect ABNCoV2 safety and tolerability data from a larger population of adult subjects, as well as additional immunogenicity data from a subset. Part B involves vaccination with the same single 100 µg dose of ABNCoV2 in the same population of adult subjects as the randomized component, and subjects will similarly be enrolled into 2 cohorts according to whether they have completed primary vaccination only or primary plus booster vaccination.
