A comparison of reactions to illness announcements on Twitter


Hillary Clinton announced that she caught COVID

From my count of the below tweets, there are:

  • Two well-wishes to the Clintons that mention activities they can do while recovering
  • Sixteen well-wishes in words
  • Three prayer or heart emoji tweets
  • No tweets including mocking or hateful comments

  • Twelve tweets with mocking statements
