Abstract

The present research had as objective to identify the role that social networks fulfill in times of crisis like the covid-19 pandemic, for which a study has been carried out by means of a methodological complementarity combining the systematic revision of literature and the analytical evolutionary observation of publications in social networks in the temporary space from March to July 2020, which is related to the emergent design of the grounded theory. The results obtained indicate that social networks aremassive mechanisms, of easy access to the population and therefore a good channel for effective communication of the measures taken at government level to face the pandemic, however there are publications oriented to generate panic and to spread prescriptions and unproven medicines and even false news are part of the reality and these findings give account of a negative aspect that must be analyzed with more depth in order to know the nature of the conducts that propitiate these facts with the aggravation of the crisis situation in which the population is.
