Invitation

The University of Mississippi requests your participation in a study titled the Measurement of COVID-19 Health Impact (MOCHI). The survey includes questions developed as part of the COVID-19 Snapshot Monitoring (COSMO) initiative by the World Health Organization in collaboration with the University of Erfurt, Germany. Results from this project can help to:

• target and coordinate relief efforts and distribution of resources during this time,
• improve messaging and education efforts to improve compliance with social distancing, and
• provide insight into building resilience and preparedness for potential future crises.

Your participation is voluntary. The survey should take no more than 20-25 minutes to complete. Please click on this survey link or type ‘tinyurl.com/MOCHIsurvey’ into your browser to begin the survey.

If you have questions about the survey or for coordinating a response to the pandemic, please contact John Young, associate professor of psychology, or Sujith Ramachandran, assistant professor of pharmacy administration. This study has been reviewed by the University of Mississippi’s Institutional Review Board (IRB). If you have questions, concerns, or reports regarding your rights as a research participant, please contact the IRB at 662-915-7482 or irb@olemiss.edu.
