Description of intervention(s) / exposure
To accurately establish baseline physiological data for heart rate, respiration rate, and temperature, and to correctly detect changes in these physiological measures post vaccination, participants will be required to wear devices for 10 consecutive days prior to receiving their vaccination on day-11 and then for 3 consecutive days post vaccination.
Participants will be required to book and receive a vaccination of their choosing e.g., seasonal flu, travel-based or COVID-19 booster shot on day-11 of the study and then continue wearing the device for an additional 3-days. Devices being used in the study will be the Empatica Embraceplus, Garmin Venu SQ2 and the MotionWatch8. All are wrist worn devices and as such will be worn on participants wrists. Participants will be advised to wear devices at all times except for swimming, showering and charging. Device analytics for Empatica and Garmin devices will provide researchers with relative real time information to monitor adherence to the device wearing protocol.. Device analytics for MotionWatch8 will only be obtained once participants have returned the device and researchers download the data.
