The emergence and increase of cases of the new coronavirus in Cabo Verde led to the implementation of several infection control measures.

This study aimed to analyze the knowledge, attitudes, perceptions, and practices of the resident Cabo Verdean population regarding COVID-19. A cross-sectional study was car…
Public health capacity development in Africa

Spatio-temporal evolution of mortality in Cape Verde
Located in West Africa, Cabo Verde is a low income country, with significant gains in health indicators. Mortality is an important demographic factor. Its analysis provides essential statistical data for the design, implementation and evaluation of public health programs. The propose of this work is to analyze the spatio-temporal evolution of mortality in Cabo Verde between 1995 to 2018. This is an observational, quantitative study that performs …

The present study aimed at assessing the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of the Cape Verdean resident population towards COVI…
