Larissa S. Drescher et al.

Summary: The study compared crisis communication on Twitter between public authorities and individual experts in Germany during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Additionally, the analysis showed that structural elements, such as the use of hashtags, in authorities' tweets could actually reduce the spread of the messages, highlighting the need for updated standards for successful crisis communication.
