Honduras has a unique situation regarding violence-related deaths, especially those caused by firearms. The data used in this article comes from the Forensic Medicine Service and Mobile Morgue of the Public Ministry in Honduras and from scraping results from the Duckduckgo search engine accessed through the application programming interface (API). The data taken is just from 2022; in the case of search parameters, we only took the results of Honduran digital media sites filtered using the keyword "balazo". We wanted to measure if there was a difference between the number of deaths from firearms officially reported by the Public Ministry when comparing them with those published in Honduran digital media obtained through web scraping during the year of study. This study followed a typical descriptive design by determining the sample variables' frequencies, distributions, and qualitative characteristics. The results show that the number of deaths from firearms reported by digital media is higher than the official number. Using the number of deaths per thousand inhabitants, the tabloids, when they refer to less populated regions, the differences compared to the values published by the Public Ministry turn out to be up to twenty times greater; as far as urban centers are concerned, it is reduced to the level that digital media report up to twice as many deaths per thousand inhabitants. Keywords: Firearms deaths; digital media; sensationalism; scraping; text analysis; forensic science

Historically, the Garifuna community has been relegated to northern Honduras. The access indicators for the behavior in telecommunications services of this ethnic group are not known in depth. A sample has been chosen to study variables such as hours of use of computers and mobiles, the monthly budget for telecommunications services, and characterization of complementary final services, especially the behavior and digital knowledge from the intersection of technology together with an aspect of common knowledge among the Garifuna, which in this case is proposed to carry out the analysis to be able to encourage and promote health in terms of the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases (STD). Data were collected electronically using an instrument between January and May 2022. In the behavior and knowledge of digital technologies, basic statistics have been used to analyze quantitative data, but an unstructured text analysis algorithm has been used, together with graph theory, to find the relationships between the terms used by the participants. The result has been widespread access to telecommunications services, but there is also low knowledge of the basic concepts associated with these technologies. Keywords: Digital behavior; Garifuna; algorithm; ICT; mobile services
