Zusammenfassung: | We analyzed the discursive construction of the Zika virus outbreak in Brazil (2015-2016) in the newspaper Diario de Pernambuco. Our guiding question is to understand the postures assumed by the newspaper in the discursivization of the outbreak, revealing discursive actors and meaning effects produced on the issue. Based on the contribution of Discourse Analysis, we analyzed 210 titles of news published on the newspaper's website between October 2015 and April 2016. We classified the corpus into five communicative categories: Alert (35%), Action (32%), scientific Conviction (24%), Orientation (5%) and Consequences (4%). Most of the enunciations mobilize official, institutional and scientific discourses on the outbreak, sometimes representing it as an extraordinary event, with alarming expansion, sometimes minimizing its effects. The main focus is on the actions of the authorities and scientists in containing the spread of the outbreak. Analisamos a construcao discursiva da epidemia do Zika virus no Brasil (2015-2016) no jornal Diario de Pernambuco. Nossa questao norteadora consiste em compreender quais as posturas assumidas pelo jornal na discursivizacao da epidemia, desvelando atores discursivos e efeitos de sentido produzidos sobre o surto. A partir do aporte da Analise do Discurso, analisamos 210 titulos de noticias publicadas no site do jornal entre outubro de 2015 e abril de 2016. Classificamos o corpus em cinco categorias comunicativas: Alerta (35%), Acao (32%), Conviccao cientifica (24%), Orientacao (5%) e Consequencias (4%). A maioria dos enunciados mobiliza discursos oficiais, institucionais e cientificos sobre a epidemia, ora representando-a como um evento extraordinario, com expansao alarmante, ora minimizando os seus efeitos. O foco principal esta nas acoes das autoridades e dos cientistas na contencao do avanco da epidemia. Palavras-chave: Zika virus. Cobertura jornalistica. Construcao discursiva. Keywords: Zika virus.
