SARS-COV2 Pandemic Serosurvey in a Rare Disease Population

Background: The SARS-COV2 outbreak has had a major impact on the economy and society. Researchers want to learn how widespread the infection is in the rare disease community. To do this, they will get blood samples from people with rare diseases. They will use at-home sampling. This will allow them to get samples from people across a wide area. Objective: To estimate the proportion of people with rare diseases who have SARS-COV2 antibodies in the National Center for the Advancement of Translational Sciences Rare Disease Clinical Research Network (RDCRN) Rare Diseases Survey over time. Eligibility: People under age 90 who have a rare disease and have taken part in the Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC) protocol# 2020-0299. Design: RDCRN will tell CCHMC participants about this NIH study. RDCRN will only reach out to those who agreed to be contacted for future studies. They will be contacted by phone and email. Participants will have a virtual visit to collect data. It will take place over the phone. Participants will be sent a home kit to collect a blood sample. The kit contains gauze, a lancet, bandages, a collection device, and instructions. They will also be given shipping materials. They will give up to 80ul of blood. They will ship the sample back to NIH. Participants will complete a survey. It can be done online or over the phone. Participation will last for 1 week....
