The present work analyzes the factors that influence the viralization of fake news on Twitter during the Covid-19 pandemic. Currently, due to the pandemic generated by Covid-19, fake news has been the subject of viralization on social networks. On the one hand, the coronavirus, being a new disease, has been used to create false news, since there is still no concrete and truthful information, so it is easy to create and speculate rumors. On the other hand, the fake news has come out again, since the use of the internet has caused this phenomenon to become more viral and become relevant today, in addition to the fact that due to the pandemic many people have had to change their “normal“ life for a “virtual“ one. Fake News is a term given to this news that causes alarm and misinformation in people, adding that they are more likely to start on the internet. What this research seeks through a content analysis is to find the factors that influence this news and the reason for its viralization. Likewise, Twitter tweets that use the hashtag #YoNoMeVacuno will be selected to understand the users of this social network and see the effects caused by the viralization of Fake news on this platform.
