The volume extensively discusses COVID-19 but it also covers other epidemics, such as malaria, HIV/AIDS as well as "silent" health crises such as mental health---simmering across the subcontinent. The chapters fill knowledge gaps, highlight innovations, unpack the complexities surrounding the media ecosystem in times of health crises. They explore, among other issues, the politics of public health communication; infodemics; existential threats to media viability; draconian legislations; threats to journalists/journalism; COVID-related entrepreneurship, marginalization, and more. This is a timely resource for academics, advocacy groups, media practitioners and policy makers working on crises and media reporting, not just in Africa but anywhere in the global South. 001431412 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed June 6, 2022). 001431412 647_7 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic$$d(2020-)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst02024716 001431412 650_0 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- , in mass media. 001431412 650_0 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan. 001431412 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001431412 7001_ $$aDralega, Carol Azungi,$$eeditor.$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2678-9794 001431412 7001_ $$aNapakol, Angella,$$eeditor.$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0275-807X 001431412 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tHealth crises and media discourses in Sub-Saharan Africa.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, [2022]$$z9783030950996$$w(OCoLC)1289443958 001431412 852__ $$bebk 001431412 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-95100-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.2 001431412 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1431412$$pGLOBAL_SET 001431412 980__ $$aBIB 001431412 980__ $$aEBOOK 001431412 982__ $$aEbook 001431412 983__ $$aOnline 001431412 994__ $$a92$$bISE
