This analysis is a collaboration with Whitehead Communications. The graph presents the trending topics in Uganda’s news coverage of COVID-19 from February 2nd to June 27th, 2020. A total of 14,947 news articles (news titles and lead paragraphs) were collected and analyzed. The percentage next to each topic represents the proportion of the topic-related discussion in the given week. See the detailed methodology in our Research Method section.

The above graphs present the major topics in Uganda’s news coverage of COVID-19 and the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths — cumulative and new — from February 2nd to June 27th, 2020. Topic percentages may not add up to 100% because some news coverage does not belong to any one of the major topics.
