In 2012, Colombia implemented a school-based HPV vaccination program of 3-dose series for nine year old girls. Following mass psychogenic response after in Colombian town, rates dropped from 80% 2012–2013 to 5% 2016. The study aimed identify barriers and facilitators vaccine uptake among girls eligible the initial years implementation 2012 2014, their parents. We conducted 19 individual qualitative interviews 18 focus groups with an average 5 girls, Manizales, between 2016 2017. total, 49...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M . tuberculosis) was the pathogen responsible for highest number of deaths from infectious diseases in world, before arrival COVID-19 pandemic. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has contributed to understanding genetic diversity, mechanisms involved drug resistance and transmission dynamics this pathogen. The object study is use WGS epidemiological molecular characterization M clinical strains Chinchiná, Caldas, a small town Colombia with high incidence TB. Sputum...
