ARNDT, Gilmara Joanol; TRINDADE, Milena Tarcisa; ALVES, Juliana de Oliveira  e  MIGUEL, Raquel de Barros Pinto. "Who is on the rightist takes chloroquine, who is on the leftist takes... a vaccine". Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.51, pp.608-626. ISSN 2175-1390.

This research aimed to investigate the phenomenon of disinformation in the Covid-19 pandemic. To this end, we elected as the objective of study false content related in Brazil between the months of January and November of 2020. We seek to analyze the discourses present in such untrue information, we seek to discuss them from the political and social context of our country. From that, it was possible to identify that the disinformation contents were aimed at producing discredit regarding: the data produced by the scientific and health institutions; the sanitary measures implemented in the fight against Covid-19 and, finally, the vaccine. In contrast, hydroxychloroquine is mentioned as a quick and inexpensive solution to the current health crisis. Throughout the analysis, it was possible to perceive, still, the continuous convergence between the president Jair Messias Bolsonaro and the speeches that composed the false contents analyzed.
