Resumo: This text aims to present and discuss the results of a research on anti-vaccination narratives published in two Facebook groups. These posts were collected through observations of the digital environment and interpreted with methodological resources of content analysis. We sought to analyze the posts using as reference the terms that socially anchor them: virtual world and relationships; misinformation and fake news; post-truth and denialism. It is considered the year 2020, when the covid-19 pandemic began and, at the same time, vaccines were developed and, with them, movements of distrust and refusal of vaccination. The results show these aspects, pointing out different motivations for this refusal, with emphasis on questions regarding the following axes: safety, efficacy and need for vaccines; political and economic issues.

Estos posts fueron recogidos a través de observaciones del entorno digital e interpretados con recursos metodológicos de análisis de contenido. Buscamos analizar las publicaciones a partir de los términos que las anclan socialmente: mundo virtual y relaciones; desinformación y noticias falsas; la posverdad y el negacionismo. Se considera el año 2020, cuando comenzó la pandemia de covid-19 y, al mismo tiempo, se desarrollaron vacunas y, con ellas, movimientos de desconfianza y rechazo a la vacunación. Los resultados muestran estos aspectos, señalando diferentes motivaciones en los mensajes para ese rechazo, con énfasis en cuestiones relativas a los siguientes ejes: seguridad, eficacia y necesidad de vacunas; cuestiones políticas y económicas.O presente texto tem como objetivo apresentar e discutir os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre narrativas antivacinas postadas em dois grupos do Facebook.
