Social media is emerging as a useful tool in tracking public health concerns and provides timely insights into how individuals understand and respond to public health threats. Almost 85 million tweets containing the keyword ‘coronavirus' were examined to uncover the predominantly discussed Covid mitigating practices and their association with CDC-related tweets. When Twitter users retweeted the CDC regarding mitigation practices, an overwhelming number focused on the mask category, and there was a strong correlation between tweets about masks in the overall dataset and CDC tweets about masks. Qualitative analysis of a subset of 1200 mask-related tweets unveiled that Twitter was used to: 1) share information about masks, 2) express opinions, 3) highlight profiting during Covid, and 4) describe efforts to promote masking. This study can contribute to our understanding of public perceptions and augment the use of Twitter by public health professionals to limit infections and save lives in future pandemics.

社交媒体正在成为跟踪公共卫生问题的有用工具,并及时提供个人如何理解和应对公共卫生威胁的见解。研究人员检查了近8500万条包含“冠状病毒”关键字的推文,以发现主要讨论的缓解措施及其与疾病预防控制中心相关推文的关联。当Twitter用户转发CDC关于缓解措施的推文时,绝大多数人关注的是口罩类别,并且在整个数据集中关于口罩的推文与CDC关于口罩的推文之间存在很强的相关性。对1200条口罩相关推文的一个子集进行定性分析,发现Twitter用于:1)分享有关口罩的信息,2)表达意见,3)强调在Covid期间的盈利,以及4)描述促进口罩的努力。这项研究有助于我们了解公众的看法,并增加公共卫生专业人员对Twitter的使用,以在未来的流行病中限制感染和挽救生命。版权归Taylor & Francis Ltd所有,未经版权所有者明确书面许可,其内容不得复制或通过电子邮件发送到多个网站或发布到listserv。但是,用户可以打印、下载或通过电子邮件发送文章供个人使用。这可以删节。对副本的准确性不作任何保证。用户应参阅原始出版版本的材料的完整。(版权适用于所有人。)

Twitter has been an influential and often controversial strategy for disseminating, discussing, and sharing information about the COVID-19 vaccine during the pandemic. This study focuses on using Twitter as a data collection and analysis tool to understand the narrative surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine in the days after the first emergency-use authorization (EUA). We conducted a content analysis of tweets we collected over a 30-day period (n = 419,495) and developed an iterative codebook that contained six domains (tweet source, location, tweet characteristics, COVID-19 specific topics, demographic descriptors, and sentiment) and thirty-six codes. Despite the abundance of misinformation on Twitter about the vaccine, we found that more tweets were positive than negative in tone and contained mostly reliable and up-to-date information about the vaccine. Most tweets came from individuals though many came from organizations. We found little discussion of demographic descriptors such as race/ethnicity, religion, or socioeconomic status, nor did we see discussion of misinformation or mask-wearing. Additionally, few tweets came from politicians or political organizations, and we found little talk of politics. This article contributes to the growing body of evidence of using Twitter to understand the narrative surrounding health topics during public health crises such as COVID-19.

在大流行期间,推特一直是传播、讨论和分享有关COVID-19疫苗信息的一种有影响力且经常引起争议的策略。本研究的重点是使用Twitter作为数据收集和分析工具,以了解在首次紧急使用授权(EUA)后几天内围绕COVID-19疫苗的叙述。我们对30天内收集的推文(n = 419,495)进行了内容分析,并开发了一个迭代代码本,其中包含六个域(推文来源、位置、推文特征、COVID-19特定主题、人口统计描述符和情绪)和36个代码。尽管推特上有大量关于疫苗的错误信息,但我们发现,更多的推文在语气上是积极的,而不是消极的,并且包含了关于疫苗的大多数可靠和最新的信息。大多数推文来自个人,但也有许多来自组织。我们发现很少有关于人口统计学描述的讨论,如种族/民族、宗教或社会经济地位,也没有看到关于错误信息或戴面具的讨论。此外,很少有来自政治家或政治组织的推文,我们发现很少有关于政治的讨论。这篇文章提供了越来越多的证据,证明在COVID-19等公共卫生危机期间使用Twitter来理解围绕健康主题的叙述。版权归Taylor & Francis Ltd所有,未经版权所有者明确书面许可,其内容不得复制或通过电子邮件发送到多个网站或发布到listserv。但是,用户可以打印、下载或通过电子邮件发送文章供个人使用。这可以删节。对副本的准确性不作任何保证。用户应参阅原始出版版本的材料的完整。(版权适用于所有人。)
