  • Enrolling Participants: COVID19 Complication Study

    Volunteers Wanted for a Paid Research Study

    Do you want to join Connecticut Children’s in the fight against COVID-19? If so, contribute to research and give us your spit! If you or your child have tested positive for COVID-19 and have mild or no symptoms, you may be eligible to participate in an important research study. Spit can help kids!

    Saliva has the potential to help us create a test that will help identify kids who are sick with MIS-C, a complication from Covid. All we need is a small saliva sample and for you or your child to answer one or two surveys every two months.

    Are you or your child eligible?

    • Age birth to <21 years
    • Tested positive for Covid within last 7 days and have mild or no symptoms

    Participants will receive $50 gift card for joining the study
