This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether community-based health education programs can help people in Hong Kong better understand and prevent COVID-19. The program is designed with input from community members, schools, and organizations to make sure the information fits different cultural backgrounds and lifestyles. Researchers want to see if these educational programs can increase vaccination rates and help people adopt protective measures.
Hong Kong residents have different cultural, professional, and living backgrounds, which means one-size-fits-all health messages may not work for everyone. This trial exists to test whether community-based education programs can better reach and educate diverse groups of people about COVID-19 prevention.

You would join one of two groups: either attend community-based health education sessions led by local organizations (using videos, social media, posters, or other methods) for 3 months with a follow-up session halfway through, or receive health information shared by collaborators. The program is flexible and designed to fit into your daily life, with incentives offered to encourage participation.
