Given the expectation that other flu pandemics will occur, it stresses the importance of examining how the public response is shaped in the face of global health emergencies. It considers questions such as how can pandemic language both limit and expand our understanding of disease as biomedical, social, and experiential? In what ways can health communication be improved through the study and application of rhetoric and the health humanities? \u003ci\u003eCOVID Communication\u003c\/i\u003e fills a gap in the pandemic literature by promoting interdisciplinary analysis of communication methods, realized through a health humanities approach. It centers human experience and culture within conversations about the biological reality of a pandemic. This volume will be a welcome contribution to the scientific investigations and practice of psychology and public health professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterdisciplinary perspective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew insights on how a pandemic is understood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighlights the relevance to important usually neglected relevance for psychology and public health professionals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEndorsements of \u003ci\u003eCOVID Communication\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“In an era of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis,\u003ci\u003e COVID Communication \u003c\/i\u003eprovides a smart, urgent alternative to our collective downward spiral, not only offering a fiery critique of our selfish and self-destructive present but also providing galvanizing, positive visions of what futures we might hope for.” — Shailendra Saxena, King George’s Medical University, India; editor of \u003ci\u003eCoronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Therapeutics\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“\u003ci\u003eCOVID Communication\u003c\/i\u003e shows that the pandemic affects us not only because it makes us sick or ruins our economy, but also because of howit is spoken, written, and thought about, ultimately because of how it is socially constructed.

The reality, however, is that the responses to the pandemic reflected the ideologies of national leaders, political leaders, media outlets, and activists, leading to a fragmented and at times polarized global discourse. This important work examines the different narratives that circulated within the information environment to explore how these may have led to differing levels of trust in politicians, in science, and in one another. Through an analysis of rhetoric across diverse nations and platforms, the chapters provide a framework that is crucial for understanding the interplay between discourse, cognition, and behavior.” — Darren Lilleker, Bournemouth University, UK; co-editor of \u003ci\u003ePolitical Communication and COVID-19: Governance and Rhetoric in Times of Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“This book presents a collection of must-read scholarly chapters that illustrate a panoramic view of how people from different countries and cultures communicate about this global pandemic.  These chapters paint a rich canvas of thoughts, emotions, reactions, and actions through communication expressions, ranging from intuitive rhetoric and probing cartoons to emotional memes and creative advertising.  The book is a great resource for aiding health communication scholars, instructors, professionals, journalists, and students in enhancing their COVID-19 research, teaching, practice, reporting, and learning.” — Carolyn A.

Presenting broad cross-cultural and multi-modal perspectives on media portrayals of the illness that has caused so much suffering and uncertainty, this insightful book offers a ‘rhetorical toolkit’ that gives us tools to navigate the maze of modern communication with a deeper understanding of the power of language in the time of social media. It is a perfect resource for classes on media literacy, while it is useful to anyone who wants to become a more active, independent, and secure consumer of the media in the age of information abundance.” — Katja Plemenitaš,University of Maribor, Slovenia; co-author of \u003ci\u003eJosip Hutter and the Dwelling Culture of Maribor\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“COVID-19, as a disaster and series of converging crises, has forever shaped society. \u003ci\u003eCOVID Communication \u003c\/i\u003eoffers an easy-to-read, unparalleled academic-practitioner focus to help understand the cultural, social, economic, political, community health, and personal risk assessment aspects of communication during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
