Tracking the Twitter attention around the research efforts on the COVID-19 pandemic results
- Number of research publications and twitter mentions rose from January to March, peaking when Wuhan went into lockdown and when COVID-19 was declared a global outbreak
- a publication abut how COVID-19 is not a lab-manipulated virus got the most Twitter mentions, followed by articles about clinical treatments, public health countermeasures, and transmissibility of the virus
- mentions about articles concentrate a few days after publication
- Twitter users with an academic or scholarly role are more likely to be retweeted
- Twitter users often tweet their own thoughts and ideas along with information about research when mentioning a publication
- the focus of discussions has transferred from virological and clinical topics to prevention and treatment, government action, and how the pandemic is affecting society
