Jak troszczyć się o życie? Antyszczepionkowe narracje spiskowe w czasie pandemii COVID-19
How best to protect life? Anti-vaccine conspiracy narratives during the COVID-19 pandemic

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to discuss the social attitudes adopted by representatives of the anti-vaccine movement in response to the threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. A critical analysis of this discourse, represented by texts in the virtual space, identifies the distinctive features of the anti-vaccination narratives that developed in response to information on the need to develop and roll out vaccine to combat COVID-19. The analysis focuses primarily on texts posted on the alternative news portal Free Media. Ewa Kozik has taken into account the most popular conspiracy theories, which directly relate to the worldview of the opponents of vaccination.
