The year 2020 was marked by the emergence of the biggest pandemic of this century, covid-19. In addition to the difficulties imposed by a health emergency of this magnitude, we were also challenged by complex communicational phenomena, such as disinformation, infodemic, syndemic, and fake news, which generated the need for the disease to be seen from previously neglected perspectives. The book Disinformation and Covid-19: Contemporary Challenges in Communication and Health offers a diversity of analyses and initiatives to face the difficulties fostered by covid-19 from different theoretical conceptions that seek to understand the complex interfaces that connect communication and health. As a result, we expect that the capacity to guarantee citizenship rights will be expanded, with truly equitable, universal and comprehensive health, offering better responses to the crises that may be in our future.
