    Vacunación entre hombres | COVID's Lasting Impact

    La vacunación es la herramienta de medicina preventiva más importante en el mundo entero. Sin embargo, en los EE. UU. las disparidades en la vacunación siguen existiendo en grupos vulnerables como en el caso de los trabajadores migrantes hombres que hablan español como primer idioma. En este episodio, las invitadas, Nelly Salgado de Snyder, PhD, MA, científico principal de investigación del Instituto de Investigación Latino de UT Texas y Alma Galván, MHC, directora de Capacitación y Participación Comunitaria de MCN, hablarán sobre cómo los proveedores de servicios de salud pueden comprender mejor los determinantes sociales de la salud y las barreras que puedan estar en juego. Los oyentes también aprenderán sobre cómo pueden diseñar intervenciones equitativas, hiperlocales y culturalmente apropiadas para llegar a estas poblaciones. Vaccination is one of the most important preventive medicine actions worldwide. However, in the US, immunization disparities continue to exist in vulnerable groups like male migrant workers who speak Spanish as their first language. In this episode, guests, Nelly Salgado de Snyder, PhD, MA, Senior Research Scientist at the Latino Research Institute at UT Austin, and Alma Galván, MHC, MCN's Director of Community Engagement and Worker Training, will discuss how health care providers can better understand the social determinants of health and barriers that may be at play. Listeners will also learn how they can craft equitable, hyperlocal, and culturally appropriate interventions to reach these populations. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/on-the-move-mcn/support
