Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Between 2015 and 2016, Brazil experienced a public health emergency due to the Zika virus and its consequences. Professionals from various scientific fields, especially the biomedical sciences, undertook investigations to understand the virus's origin and impact. Thus, recruitment emerged as a necessary condition for inviting individuals to participate in their research. This article aims to map the relationships and practices involved in recruiting research participants during the Zika virus epidemic in Recife/PE. It seeks to understand the invitation mechanism, persuasion tactics, and refusals, balancing ethics, care, and, above all, science.
