A aplicação efetiva da vacina de HPV no Brasil: Um desafio a ser vencido em meio a baixa adesão movida pelo preconceito

Abstract

This work focuses on how the HPV vaccine, or Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), a virus that mainly affects teenagers, acts on people's bodies and how vaccination can help cure this disease, through early prevention of STIs, which are responsible for the highest incidence of cervical cancer in women aged 30 to 55. The work addressed the stages of STI infection and the creation of the National Immunization Campaign, however the data collected demonstrated low adherence to vaccination due to lack of information, untrue information and prejudice, mainly associated with the fact that the vaccine is linked to early onset of the active sexual life of adolescentes.
