摘要
We analyzed 95,970 stories on COVID-19 published in 2020 by newspapers in US, UK, China and Brazil - countries marked by controversial management of the crisis. Through a text mining approach, we identified main topics, subjects, actors and the level of attention. The coverage was politicized in The New York Times and Folha de S. Paulo; focused on health aspects in The Guardian; and emphasized the economic situation in China Daily. In this sense, the pandemic has motivated a deeper approach to the multiple dimensions of science and health, pointing to a broader perspective of science communication.
