“…This study is different from the above-mentioned studies and the research in Turkey (Aydin, 2020; Akyüz, 2020;Porsuk & Cerit, 2021;Topsakal, 2021;Karakaş & Doğru, 2021) which mostly analyzed fake news and mis/disinformation related to COVID-19 pandemic, we purposed to focus on all the types of false information, and specifically anti-vaccination. Due to the policy and regulations of Twitter, we reached only 748 Tweets posted under 12 mostly-used hashtags in Turkey.…”

“…Therefore, Turkey can be considered as one of the country samplings to analyze the general structure and effect of false information on COVID-19 vaccination. Although there are some studies (Aydin, 2020;Akyüz, 2020;Porsuk & Cerit, 2021;Topsakal, 2021;Karakaş & Doğru, 2021) analyzed fake news and mis/disinformation related to the COVID-19 pandemic within Post-Truth understanding, none of them focused on anti-vaccination hashtags and posts of Twitter by the users. The main focus on Post-Truth understanding is related to the vast attention that false information (particularly fake news) impacts on individuals in a way that blurs the difference between the real and the fake (Sismondo, 2017).…”

The Covid-19 pandemic has affected the world socially, culturally, economically, and politically. Struggling with the Covid-19 virus has become the focal point of the countries. As many studies are being conducted, and new treatment methods are being discussed, the vaccination process continues worldwide. According to the current statistics, 63% of the world population has been already fully vaccinated. During this period, along with the true information, many false information facts and materials proliferated which lead to the reluctance of individuals to be vaccinated. As a result of it, the virus exposes to mutation and more serious cases emerge worldwide. In this context, this study aims to analyze false information Tweets regarding vaccination in Turkey. As Turkey is one of the top countries with the highest cases and the medium-scaled (68%) level of vaccination worldwide, the study findings will help to understand the main motives of anti-vaccination by focusing on false facts. A two-step methodology was followed in the research. First, data collection was done through Twitter API and then, the analysis was conducted by means of the Orange Data Mining Program and content analysis. Propaganda is one of the interesting results as the most-shared false information type. On the other hand, while “the denial of the epidemic” was the most-focused theme, “stop insisting on PCR” and “pandemic is over” were the most-emphasized discourses in the Tweets.

Purpose: This cross-sectional study aims to explore the effect of pediatric nurses' perceptions and attitudes of coronavirus on their quality of life. Methods: It was carried out between the dates of June-August, 2021. The sample of the study consisted of 80 pediatric nurses working in the pediatric clinics of a university hospital. “Perceptions and Attitudes Evaluation Scale towards the COVID-19 Pandemic” and "WHOQOL-BREF-TR Scale" were used to collect data which were collected by online survey method. Results: It was determined that the mean score of the spiritual and social domains of the quality of life of the pediatric nurses was at a moderate level, while the mean scores of the physical and environmental domains were found to be below the medium level. According to the results of the regression analysis, the nurses' coronavirus perception and attitude sub-dimensions of dangerousness, macro, cognitive avoidance, common area avoidance and personal contact avoidance scores explained 30% of spiritual domain scores, and macro and common area avoidance sub-dimension scores explained 25% of social domain scores, macro and complo sub-dimensions scores explained 22% of environmental domain scores. Conlusion: As a result, it was determined that pediatric nurses' perceptions and attitudes towards coronavirus effect their quality of life. In order to increase the quality of life of pediatric nurses, attempts should be made to help nurses in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide necessary protection conditions to minimize the physical, spiritual, social, and environmental effects of the pandemic.

As in all crisis periods, eyes have turned to both mass media and social media platforms in the period of COVID-19. Misinformation about the spread of the disease, preventive measures and treatment methods can leave much deeper effects than the false news seen in other periods and cause the pandemic to spread further and seriously affect public health. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic becomes even more dangerous with the fake and false news pandemic, which is effective on a global scale, and the need for news validation activities and the organizations that carry out this process increases. In this study, fact-checking activities carried out by Teyit which continued to work as a member of the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) in Turkey, during the pandemi period were discussed. In the study, when compared to the same time period in 2018 in Turkey, the number of suspects examined by Teyit in the first three months of the year 2020 has been shown to increase. In addition, it was determined that the policy category, which ranks first in the questionable content type that has been passed through the fact-checking process, has been replaced by the health category.
