Abstract

Having caused a global pandemic in 2020, COVID-19 can be described as a paradigm-shifting event inmany aspects of modern life. The strict pandemic response in the beginning has gradually dissipatedover time as public support has declined. While different countries have had different approaches tomanaging COVID-19, all governments have fought a severe battle against fake news related to the virus,which in many cases has reduced the effectiveness of protection. The attitudes towards masking,lockdowns, and vaccination have become a political self-definition mechanism in many countries,influencing policy-making processes. Therefore, this study examines COVID-19-related fake news fromthree aspects: sentiment analysis, a network theory approach, and a survey.Keywords: COVID-19, sentiment analysis, fake news, network theory, survey
