Brazil: funk song with Bach passage becomes vaccination anthem – international

SÃO PAULO – Brazil has its own vaccination hit: The funk song “Bum Bum Tam Tam”, in which musician MC Fioti asks a woman to move her buttocks (bumbum), was initially a success on social media. On Saturday a specially produced remix of the song was released: “Bum Bum Tam Tam (Remix Vacina Butantan)”, in which the musician asks the audience to go to the “Butantan” for vaccinations. Meant is the research facility “Instituto Butantan” in São Paolo, whose name sounds similar to the song title.
