Communicating COVID-19 is a touchstone for the emerging field of pandemic media.? - Mark D M Davis, Monash University, Australia, co-author of Pandemics, Publics and Narrative (2020) ?As governments and scientists scrambled to find solutions in the face of grave uncertainty created by COVID-19, there was a massive public demand for information. Filling this communication gap is the focus of this must-read, timely book, which includes excellent scholarly contributions from across the globe.? - Quarraisha Abdool Karim, Professor in Clinical Epidemiology, Columbia University, USA, and Associate Scientific Director at CAPRISA This book explores communication during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Featuring the work of leading communication scholars from around the world, it offers insights and analyses into how individuals, organisations, communities, and nations have grappled with understanding and responding to the pandemic that has rocked the world. The book examines the role of journalists and news media in constructing meanings about the pandemic, with chapters focusing on public interest journalism, health workers and imagined audiences in COVID-19 news. It considers public health responses in different countries, with chapters examining community-driven approaches, communication strategies of governments and political leaders, public health advocacy, and pandemic inequalities. The role of digital media and technology is also unravelled, including social media sharing of misinformation and memetic humour, crowdsourcing initiatives, the use of data in modelling, tracking and tracing, and strategies for managing uncertainties created in a pandemic. 606 $aCommunication in medicine 606 $aCommunication in science 606 $aJournalism 606 $aDigital media 606 $aCommunication in politics 606 $aHealth Communication 606 $aScience Communication 606 $aNews Journalism 606 $aDigital and New Media 606 $aPolitical Communication 615 0$aCommunication in medicine. 615 0$aCommunication in science. 615 0$aJournalism. 615 0$aDigital media. 615 0$aCommunication in politics. 615 14$aHealth Communication. 615 24$aScience Communication. 615 24$aNews Journalism. 615 24$aDigital and New Media. 615 24$aPolitical Communication. 676 $a070.1024614592414 676 $a302.231 702 $aLewis$b Monique 702 $aGovender$b Eliza 702 $aHolland$b Kate 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910502614903321 996 $aCommunicating COVID-19$92897035 997 $aUNINA
