<p>the objective is to discuss the types of information related to COVID-19 broadcast on virtual social media and the possible influences on the mental health of the population. The reflection is based on a brief characterization of subjects about COVID-19 shared on virtual social media <em>Instagram, Facebook</em> and <em>Twitter</em> based on the question, which news related to COVID-19 is being shared on virtual social media during social distance and its implications for mental health?
