There are many people who still do not believe in SARS-CoV-2 or in the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines and, without thinking about the consequences, use social media to spread false rumors without support or scientific evidence.
It was last August 11 when different media reported that the Mexican actress and singer Paty Navidad had been admitted to the hospital, due to complications from the COVID-19.
According to a quantitative analysis of the social network Twitter, it was observed that from August 8 to 13, 2021, both the newspaper El Universal and El Heraldo de M ico were the fundamental centers of the dissemination of news on this social network.
The investigation by Pensula 360 Press, in which journalists and data scientists Eduardo Paz "Mico" and Paola Ricaurte "Ecuadorian with studies at Harvard" collaborated, identified that almost immediately, mainly on Twitter, different users noted that throughout the pandemic the actress had made statements undermining vaccination.

Once the COVID-19 pandemic began, the presenter made political statements such as that the "supposed virus" was a fraud, or that the vaccine was intended to reduce the population, sterilize it and increase disease.
All of this, as part of a plan aligned with a globalist, communist and satirical agenda, led by the investor George Soros, the billionaire Bill Gates, and joined by the president of Mexico, Andr Manuel L ez Obrador, he assured.
Through her Twitter account, Paty Navidad also expressed that the serious illness caused by COVID-19 could be easily cured with "guava tea and aspirin," which earned her account suspension.
Disbelief about COVID-19: a boomerang effect
From the moment the news of his hospitalization due to serious complications from the coronavirus became known, Twitter users recalled his statements and disbelief about COVID-19 and began to mock him.
Of all these messages, the most popular on this social network was the one generated by a user who retweeted a video with the following comment: "I hope you can pass it on to our covidiot Paty Navidad and to all those who could get vaccinated but don't."
In the video, a middle-aged man can be seen stating that his wife was unable to receive treatment for a critical illness due to the hospital being overwhelmed by COVID-19 patients.
The person questions why so many people do not believe in the virus or
