Abstract:
In this paper, we delve into the public discourse surrounding COVID-19 on Twitter to unearth the collective sentiments, concerns, and spread of information during the pandemic. By leveraging a dataset of relevant tweets and corresponding ISO country codes, our analysis will map out the geographical and digital landscape of these conversations. The significance of this work lies in its potential to inform public health strategies, shape policymaking, and contribute to social research on crisis communication. Stakeholders ranging from health officials to the public have a vested interest in understanding the contours of this dialogue. Our objective is to craft a data-driven narrative through visualizations that reveal how the world engages with the pandemic on the digital front, providing actionable insights into global and local responses to COVID-19 using Machine Learning techniques.
