Best Practices for COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing

Guided by a panel of federal and non-federal experts in COVID-19 services and health equity, Mathematica and its partner Kauffman & Associates are conducting an environmental scan of testing and vaccination strategies, a national survey of local organizations, and site visits to states and tribal organizations. We will use program theory and an implementation science framework to assess what works, for whom, in what circumstances, and why.

In partnership with the Bizzell, the study team will disseminate findings on promising practices for closing persistent gaps in COVID-19 testing and vaccination and routine vaccinations. Products will include practical, specific suggestions for practitioners and policymakers that build on the growing body of evidence. Findings from this project will have the potential to inform future efforts to mitigate the human and societal devastation of large-scale infectious disease outbreaks and the disproportionate impacts on people most at risk.
