ABSTRACT
When the world is recovering from the chaos that COVID-19 creates, the epidemic is still posing challenges to the public health system and communication. However, a case of information communication during the COVID-19 outbreak can provide a reference for the current information promulgate strategy in China. In January 2020, CCTV broadcasted the construction of two cabin hospitals on a 24-h Livestream (24H-LS), creating a remarkable viewing effect. We conducted a quantitative analysis based on the number of views, social media communication, and internet search index. We collected posts and comment data of the 24H-LS audience and related topics on Weibo, using sentiment classification and word frequency analysis to study the communication effect of 24H-LS from three perspectives perception effect, psychology, and subject issue. The results show that, first, 24H-LS has attracted extensive public attention on the Internet and social media after its launch. Second, the public's perception of the risks of the COVID-19 outbreak and its uncertainty has decreased after watching the 24H-LS. At the same time, the positive emotions of the public have been enhanced to a certain extent. Third, through subject analysis, we found that the public had high participation and strong interaction in 24H-LS, which produced collective symbols and emotions. The study shows that through 24H-LS, a new information form, the media can effectively convey important information and resolve the public's fear and anxiety.
