ABSTRACT
This article presents the results of an applied study of information flows representing the activities of vaccination opponents in the Russian segment of the new media. Based on a combination of modern methods and tools of social media predictive analytics, the authors conclude that a full-fledged network movement of "anti-vaxxers" was formed during the COVID-19 pandemic in Russia. The authors formulate the main motivations for the digital activity of anti-vaccination opponents, describe the scale and nature of the new network movement, and determine the dominant structure and management models of anti-vaxx networks. The results of the study highlight the key risks of the development of information flows of the Russian anti-vaccinationists and substantiate the need to effectively counter the movement through the formation of a constructive media agenda.
