  • Description:
    Updated Aug. 26, 2020 ; The scientists who designed the Research and Development Survey (RANDS) could never have foreseen the current global pandemic. But when COVID-19 struck, they recognized the tool was uniquely ready to meet the needs of the response. ; RANDS was developed at CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), which is home to our nation’s most comprehensive and longest-running health surveys. But unlike many of NCHS’ other surveys, RANDS wasn’t intended to collect data itself. Rather, it was designed primarily to conduct research about survey methods. ; The team has now begun using RANDS to produce data about access to healthcare, use of telemedicine, and loss of work due to illness from COVID-19.
