| The All of Us Research Program is dedicated to helping researchers find new treatments and ways to stay healthy. That's why we're asking one million people from all over the country to share their health information. The more researchers know about what makes each of us unique, the more tailored our health care can become. | | | The more information researchers have, the faster they can make new health discoveries for diseases like COVID-19. | | More than 350,000 people have already joined All of Us. With information from so many people, All of Us has the power to help answer questions that few other groups can. Here are a few of the exciting things that the program is working on to help researchers understand COVID-19. | | | COVID-19 Participant Experience (COPE) Survey | | This pandemic affects us in many different ways. Even if we ourselves don't get sick, it can affect our physical and mental health. By including topics like health, housing, and job security, our new survey asks how COVID-19 is affecting participants and their communities. | | | Antibody Testing | | Researchers are eager to learn more about when COVID-19 arrived in the United States, and how it has spread. As one of the largest and most diverse research resources available, All of Us can help them answer those questions. We will be testing blood samples taken earlier this year to look for antibodies against the virus that causes COVID-19. Antibodies may tell us if a person has been exposed to this virus in the past. | | | Electronic Health Records | | COVID-19 affects people very differently. We want to help researchers understand why that is. EHR information can show patterns across different people. This may help explain why some people have certain symptoms and others don't. | | | | | COVID-19 has changed the world as we know it. We're not sure when things will get back to normal but we do know one thing: research is the key to beating this pandemic. And you can help. | | | Join the All of Us Research Program and help drive health discoveries. | | | All of Us is a service mark of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. © 2020 | | |
