LEWIS DE LA CRUZ RODRIGUEZ, Umbert; CORDOVA ASCONA, Lucy  e  REYES SOLARI, Esperanza. Facebook Users' Perception of the HP Vaccine in Health Ministry Publications Based on Natural Language Processing. RCIM [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.2  Epub 01-Dez-2023. ISSN 1684-1859.

The objective of this study was to describe the perceptions of Facebook users who commented on posts made by the official account of the Ministry of Health of Peru (MINSA) regarding the HPV vaccination campaign. We analyzed 2748 comments in Python with natural language processing. With this process we obtained keywords that were then interpreted manually. We found mostly four types of discourse, within them: a) support for the publications of the HPV vaccine; b) refusal of the HPV vaccine; c) HPV vaccine in children; d) doubts about the HPV vaccine. For the most part, users who expressed a position against this vaccine relied on links to online news stories that presented an event supposedly attributed to vaccination or immunization but lacked a reliable and/or verifiable source of information.
