Socioecology and Prevalence of SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection in <i>Quilombolas</i> Living in the Brazilian Amazon
Quilombola are highly vulnerable groups due to the long history of enslavement in Brazil. This is the first investigation of SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and its impact in these groups in the Amazon. The study helps us to understand the relationship of socioecological differences, behavioral characteristics, and the dynamics of viral transmission associated with the risk of infection by SARS-CoV-2 among traditional populations, and can be useful to the planning of more culturally adequate public health policies for future epidemics.
