Özet
In this study, Covid-19 is clearly described as a crisis and media, political attitudes and health communication are seen as sources of this crisis. Since the day the coronavirus disease entered our lives, the number of cases and death rates announced on television, the fear, panic and anxiety created in the public, the daily changing statements of medical doctors and experts in the field have turned the situation into a crisis and clarity and transparency in communication has not been achieved. With the information pollution in social media, the production of false information has been even more than the spread of the virus, and people have had difficulties in accessing the right information from the right sources. The politicization of the public health crisis by political figures has made it difficult to comply with the measures taken for the spread of the virus. The fact that countries around the world have to choose between saving human lives or saving the economy has directly affected the perceived severity of the disease threat. As a result of this study, the centrality of communication is emphasized and it is underlined that this epidemic in the world should be carried out with effective and pre-planned communication strategies, and simple, understandable and purpose-oriented communication should be established between science and the public.
