Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A cross-sectional descriptive survey of the BOLD for individuals after having been ill with COVID-19 or have taken the COVID-19 vaccine will be compared with that of individuals who have neither been ill with COVID-19 nor taken the COVID-19 vaccine. Individuals who have both been ill and taken the COVID-19 vaccine will be compared to identify any additive risk factors.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Cross sectional survey

Detailed Description

Primary research question:
  1. Will the BOLD be worse for individuals who have taken the COVID-19 vaccine?
Secondary research questions:
  1. Will the BOLD be worse for individuals who have been ill with COVID-19?

  2. What factors affect the BOLD in individuals a) after having been ill with COVID-19, and

  1. in those who have taken the COVID-19 vaccine? Do they differ?
  1. If BOLD risk factors specific to either the COVID-19 vaccine or having been ill with COVID-19 are found, are they additive in people who have experienced both?

  2. What is the prevalence of hesitancy in the Lyme disease community to the COVID-19 vaccine?

  3. What is the severity of symptoms most likely to predict functional problems in individuals with Lyme disease who have been ill with COVID-19 or taken the COVID-19 vaccine?
