This article examines linguistic framing of Medellin as the city of the musical genre reggaeton in online media discourse, drawing on Fillmore’s frame semantics theory (1977). The most salient frames applied towards Medellin are those of centrality, home, and music, whereby the city’s global significance as a musical hub is emphasized through the terms belonging to the frame of world. The use of components from the frames of crime and drugs suggests that the drug-related past of Medellin is integrated into its new cultural profile. Another part of the new Medellin brand are the city’s residents themselves, who are credited with supporting local reggaetonero/as, and are typically referred to with overtly positive vocabulary from the frames of love, help, and home. Although some texts evoke negative stereotypes about reggaeton, the media mostly present the Medellin reggaeton scene through the frames of success, power, and business.

Representation of a tourist destination on the media which able to reach around the world is very crucial in order to introduce and promote it to the large scope of the public. The internet, particularly website is one of the media to let people recognise and realise a destination as the place to visit. A study found most tourists visit and explore an official website and then to respond as if they were planning to travel to the destination (Jeon, et.al, 2017). This indicates that the official website still plays an important role in tourists’ decision making pre-visiting. Jakarta, for example, as one of a tourist destination, at once is also a capital city of Indonesia, central of business in Indonesia and a modern city. Therefore, the concepts of representation play an important role to depict Jakarta as a destination, for example, the use of themes to represent Jakarta as a holiday place on the website, such as focusing on the traditional and modern Jakarta (Djumrianti, 2016). Thus, the purpose of this paper is to analyse how the exoticism concept is used through twenty-five photos and fourteen sections of texts on the official websites which last update in 2014. The study found exoticism idea is one of the strategies used by the Jakarta government in the representation of the city on the Enjoy Jakarta website and the Portal Site of Jakarta Capital City. This concept influences on the commercialisation of Jakarta as a whole a tourist destination.

The article deals with an issue of social consent for institutional social help activities in the functional area of the local community. When planning the development of social infrastruc-ture for social help purposes, it sometimes happens that some elements are not taken into ac-count such as the consent of town residents (neighbours) to the location of the infrastructure. Plans to create a social facility encounter resistance of residents who are concerned about their own safety. The source of such anxiety are clients of institutions, for whom the inhabitants have negative stereotypes. We experience then a conflict situation, social protests, referred to in the scientific literature as the NIMBY syndrome. We learn most about the local protests from the media, about the reasons for the protests, NIMBA actors. The article gives examples of such protests regarding the location of a social institution. Examples come from public sources – local and national newspapers, internet sources. The development of events is tracked by the media up to a certain point – for example, reaching consent or moving away from the intention to locate the institution. For social workers, this is a sufficient package of information to take into account the potential resistance of residents. In this light, it is possible to predict the lack of consent of the local community to the neighborhood with a specific cat-egory of clients of social institution. Therefore, an appropriate information campaign, ahead of the implementation of the project, can protect investors by confronting the inhabitants of the city, time-consuming and expensive procedures, and above all negative emotions. Thanks to that avoidances of hostility, aggression towards employees of institutions, clients of institu-tions and objects of this institution will be avoided.

Second Wave

AbstractThe arrival of SARS-COV-2 in late March 2020 in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, captured worldwide attention and concern. The rapid growth of the epidemic, a health system that had collapsed, and mass gravesites for coping with growing numbers of dead, were broadcast by the media around the world. Moreover, a majority of the local Amazonian indigenous communities were physically distant from appropriate medical services, to the point where warnings of genocide were issued. In a recent Science paper (December 2020), Buss et al. reported that some 76% of the residents of the city of Manaus, the capital of Amazonas, had been infected by October 2020. This estimate of the COVID-19 attack rate was based on a seroprevalence analysis of blood donor data, which despite its shortcomings was thought to be a sufficiently reliable proxy of the larger population. An attack rate of this magnitude (76%) implied that herd immunity had already been reached and the community was relatively protected from further infection. Yet in December 2020, a harsh second wave of COVID-19 struck Manaus, and currently appears to be even larger than the first wave. Here we use mathematical modelling of mortality data in Manaus, and in various states of Brazil, to understand why a second wave appeared against all expectations. Our analysis is based on estimating a “flexible” reproductive number R0(t) from the mortality data, as it changes in time over the epidemic.
