We will also ask about QR codes, which are sometimes used for security and sometimes for other purposes (for example, during and since the pandemic, some restaurants have a QR code on the table and you can possibly access the menu using that).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The survey with a consent form is hosted online at: <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://york.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3aOi2kxhkVo0Xem">https://york.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3aOi2kxhkVo0Xem</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Please do not repost this announcement or link on social media sites such as Facebook to maintain integrity.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Everyone who completed the questionnaire will be entered into a prize draw for one of 10 Amazon gift vouchers worth $15 each.
