Resumo: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic has become emergent and central to communications on social media, in which several perspectives and conceptions intertwine and oppose, sometimes creating rumors and fake news. The message flow of social media can be studied within the theoretical framework of social representations. For this purpose, 300 messages about Covid-19 were gathered: 100 of individual profiles, 100 of governments and 100 fake news. An analysis of thematic content has been conducted on the three corpora. Divergently from the other means of communication, it may be observed that the fake news results are about the Chinese origin of the virus, offer homemade advice for prevention and cure of the virus and are prone to contest social isolation. Messages from individual and governmental profiles are mostly not about the origin of the virus but provide advice on hygiene practices, garbage disposal, physical activities, psychological care and defend social isolation.

Es posible estudiar los mensajes que circulan en las redes sociales dentro del marco teórico de las representaciones sociales, y para tal fin se recolectaron 300 mensajes sobre Covid-19: 100 de perfiles individuales, 100 provenientes del gobierno y 100 fake news. Se realizó un análisis de contenido temático de cada uno de los cuerpos textuales. En los resultados fue posible observar que las fakes news, a diferencia de otras formas de comunicación, se refieren al origen chino del virus, dan consejos caseros para la prevención y cura del mismo y tienden a ser contrarias al aislamiento social. Los mensajes de perfiles individuales o gubernamentales, por su parte, no abordan el origen del virus, sino que recomiendan prácticas de higiene, tratamiento de la basura, actividades físicas, atención psicológica y defienden el aislamiento social.A pandemia de Covid-19 tornou-se central nas comunicações nas redes sociais virtuais onde diversos posicionamentos e concepções se entrelaçam e se opõem por vezes formando boatos e fake news. É possível estudar as mensagens que circulam nas redes sociais dentro do quadro teórico das representações sociais. Para tal, foram coletadas 300 mensagens sobre Covid-19: 100 de perfis individuais, 100 oriundas do governo e 100 fake news. Uma análise de conteúdo temática foi realizada nos três corpora. É possível observar nos resultados que as fake news, contrariamente às outras formas de comunicação, tratam de uma origem chinesa do vírus, dão conselhos caseiros para prevenção e cura do vírus e tendem a ser contrárias ao isolamento social. As mensagens de perfis individuais e governamentais, por sua vez, majoritariamente não tratam da origem do vírus, aconselham práticas de higiene, descarte do lixo, atividades físicas e atendimento psicológico e defendem o isolamento social.Research, Society and Development2021-06-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1626610.33448/rsd-v10i7.16266Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 7; e21110716266Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 7; e21110716266Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 7; e211107162662525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/16266/14700Copyright (c) 2021 Flaviane da Costa Oliveira; Rafael Wolter; Thiago Rafael Santin; Álvaro Peixoto; Heloisa Maria Silva e Silva Pinto; Ana Clara Lopes Oliveira Reis; Júlia Ott; Antonio Marcos Tosoli Gomeshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Flaviane da CostaWolter, RafaelSantin, Thiago RafaelPeixoto, ÁlvaroPinto, Heloisa Maria Silva e SilvaReis, Ana Clara Lopes OliveiraOtt, JúliaGomes, Antonio Marcos Tosoli2021-07-18T21:07:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/16266Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:36:51.978715Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
