摘要
COVID-19 self-test kits were distributed to low-income, older adults (n = 2532) with their home-delivered or congregate meals in May 2022. Later, a convenience sample (n = 1108) were contacted for follow-up, and 606 (55%) were reached. Among 79% who remembered getting the test, only 34% already had a test kit, but nearly all liked receiving it (91%) and reported they would use or had used it (93%). Partnering with meal-delivery service providers was feasible to increase access to COVID-19 self-tests for low-income older adults.
