Results highlighted differences between the Portuguese and the Cape Verdean women: 97% vs. 67% had heard about the HPV vaccine; 30% vs. 9% had been vaccinated, and 71% vs. 82% had reported a lack of medical recommendation as a major reason for not having been vaccinated. Further research on the mechanisms that operate in the production of health disparities is needed to promote equity-focused interventions.The FEMINA project (PTDC/SOC-SOC/30025/2017) was granted by FCT.MDPIRepositório da Universidade de LisboaAlarcão, VioletaCandeias, PedroPintassilgo, SóniaMachado, Fernando Luís2022-01-11T14:39:15Z20212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/50770engMed.
