Moreover, the investigators aim to identify potential epidemiological risks and challenges to achieve adequate prevention and control of sexually transmitted diseases in this population. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at a private university in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, from December 2019 to April 2020.
