1.2 tourist appeal
hospitable city
Rio de Janeiro is the main touristic destination in Brazil (31.5%) and this industry corresponds to 15% of the gross domestic product. The city’s vocation
to tourism couldn’t be better explained than the description of a tourist published in The New York Times:
“I traveled to Rio to experience urban beauty so intense that even the locals
pause to applaud it. Rio may be the most voluptuous city in the world, with
soft beaches, dramatic mountains, waterfalls, a rain forest, lagoon and
orchids — planted by residents — peeking out of lush old trees lining the
streets. Papayas and jackfruit drop from branches all over town, symbols
of the city’s overabundant sweetness.”
— Jodi Kantor (The New York Times – February, 15th 2013)

1.3 safety
safe city
With various major sporting events on its agenda – World Military Games (2011), FIFA Confederation
Cup (2013), FIFA World Cup (2014) and Olympic Games (2016) – Rio has already accumulated the
experience needed for organizing all the events with good planning and security, including the successful 2007 Pan-American Games (considered the best ever) and Rio-92, almost twenty years ago.
All this as well as Carnival, the huge popular festival, and the New Year festivities, organized annually for up to two million people on Copacabana beach. The newly instituted state public safety policies, including the creation of the Police Pacifying Units (UPPs), in the city’s ‘favelas’, to
strengthen the fight against drug trafficking, are giving very positive results, both in the freedom
citizens now have to live a normal life in areas previously dominated by drug traffic, but also in
the reduction of violence, proven already by the lower statistics for certain types of criminal
activities. For example, taking the month of November 2010 as a basis, and comparing it
to 2009, there was a fall of 16.66% in the s for homicides and 16.29% in vehicle robberies.
The joint Committee of Tourist Security is composed of:
- State Security Office
- Military Police Force
- Civil Police Force
- Municipal Guard
- Fire Department
- Municipal Tourist Office
- State Tourist Office
- Rio Convention & Visitors Bureau
- Brazilian Association of Travel Agents
- Brazilian Association of Professional Congress Organizer Companies
- Others
• This Joint can be summoned to provide special security for congresses,
events and groups in the city.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ENDEMIC PEMPHIGUS FOLIACEUS
Endemic pemphigus foliaceus (EPF) is a disease that occurs in certain regions
of Brazil with a total number of 15,000 people affected, being prevalent among

young people living in the rural areas of the country. In 1930s, the increase in
the number of cases in São Paulo led the State government to create an exclusive hospital for these patients. Later, other hospitals were opened in Goiânia and
Campo Grande. In 1970, there were an estimated 10.000 known cases of EPF in
Brazil’s endemic States.
In 1983, thanks to the foresight of Prof. Sebastião Sampaio, from São Paulo, and
of Prof. Luiz Diaz, from the USA, the Brazil-USA Joint Group was created for the
investigation of EPF, which produced dozens of scientific works and contributed
to a great advance in the knowledge of the disease’s pathogenesis and in the development of diagnosis techniques.
From the 50s to the 90s, the incidence of EPF decreased in São Paulo. Prof. Paulo
R. Cunha reported in his Ph.D. thesis at São Paulo Universtiy on the last focus in
the State, Iocated in the Franco da Rocha and Mairiporã districts.
The epidemiological characteristics of the disease show strong evidence that
EPF is influenced by environmental factors. Research efforts are set on determining the environmental etiological agent that produces the outbreak of that
disease in Brazil.

CONCLUSIONS
The BSD is more than 100 years old. It has more than 7.000 dermatologists and
for the first time the Brazilian Board of Dermatology 2013-2014 (Figure 12) decided to apply to host the World Congress of Dermatology. We are an emerging country, regarding scientific quality and others areas. Showing that, we recently have
hold the World Cup of Football with a big success, also the Olympic Games will be
held in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro, so we have a lot of experience and infrastructure in
receiving people and big events.
As a member society of ILDS, the BSD is aware of their responsibility to promote
the World Dermatology at the highest level, aware of that our specialty involves a
proper balance between Clinical Dermatology, Surgery and Cosmetic Dermatology, noting that Continuing Medical Education is the blood of Dermatology.
Hoping for the support of delegates from different countries around the world and
under the leadership of ILDS, the Brazilian Society could definitely hold in 2019
one of the largest and best Dermatology Congress of the ILDS History.

Brazilian dermatology foresees a fast growth. The increasing number of scientific events and demand of good professionals are strong causes for this
growth, but not the only ones. There are several traditional schools that graduate high quality experts who have managed to exponentially increase the
Brazilian scientific production.
The Brazilian Dermatology Society (SBD, Sociedade Brasileira de Dermatologia) celebrated its centenary in 2012 and is among the largest dermatology
societys in the world with more the 7,600 members.
