Vaccine acceptability and vaccine-related knowledge data were collected from female sex workers (FSWs) in Lima, Peru to determine their awareness of HPV and barriers to the potential acceptability of HPV vaccine. FSWs were found to have low knowledge of HPV. HPV vaccine, and cervical cancer. Due to high reported sexual exposure, FSWs are likely at increased risk of cervical cancer, and should have access to HPV vaccine. FSWs should be targeted for HPV education campaigns and barriers to vaccination should be addressed. Future studies should assess HPV prevalence in this population and examine retention issues for vaccine dose completion. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
