Infrastructuring a Public Communication System to Fight a Pandemic
This text is the first chapter of the book that we are currently writing. The COVID-19 pandemic implied the construction of infrastructures and public communication systems to face the health emergency. However, most governments were not prepared for this task. They had to perform an infrastructural conversion to adapt communication systems, which were not designed for this purpose. This presentation presents the results of ethnographic research on how the Mexican Federal Government used public communication to manage the pandemic.
