Hospital seeks Covid-19 study volunteers

St. Luke’s hospital in Duluth is welcoming new participants to a study with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and five other research sites across the country to study how Covid-19 moves through populations of people.

Healthcare workers, first responders and anyone whose job involves interacting with others are welcome. It is an exciting opportunity to be a part of history as a participant in one of the biggest and longest-running studies of Covid-19.

Most anyone who works outside of the house for at least 20 hours a week is eligible. Participants do not have to be a St. Luke’s patient and there is no vaccine requirement. Both vaccinated and unvaccinated participants are welcome.
