The Platform Trial In COVID-19 Vaccine BOOsting (PICOBOO) Study is designed to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of COVID-19 booster vaccines.
Telethon Kids Institute researchers are working with study sites around Australia to see what effect COVID-19 booster vaccination has on the immune system, how long these effects last, and what the optimal booster strategies are for people living in Australia. The study will also explore the safety of booster vaccination and how well boosting protects against hospitalisation and disease.
Your participation in the PICOBOO Study will help researchers develop the most effective, long-term strategies for COVID-19 booster vaccinations nation-wide.
Participation in the PICOBOO Study will take place over a one-year period and involve five visits to the research clinic in Perth, Adelaide or Launceston. These appointments will include:
