Infodemic Emergency in Italy: A Longitudinal Analysis of the Web Interest in Sources of Dis-Misinformation, Epidemiologically Dangerous Behaviors, and Vaccine Hesitancy During COVID-19This paper investigates the web interest of Italian users in sources of COVID-19 dis-misinformation and assumption of behaviors in contrast to the anti-pandemic vaccination regulations. Infodemic keywords have been mined and verified thanks to the fact-checking websites "Bufale.net" and "Butac.it" and then searched on Google Trends. Multi-comparative tests and linear regressions were employed to compare the relative search volumes of the pre-pandemic (2017-2020) and post-pandemic (2020-2022) periods. These findings reveal a drastic and widespread growth in the web interest of Italian netizens towards sources of fake news and illegal and epidemiologically risky practices such as the purchase of counterfeit green passes. Among the investigated keywords, the web interest in disinformation channels such as "ByoBlu" and "Radio Radio" recorded the most significant relative increase, especially during the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022. The relative search volume towards keywords such as "buy green pass," "unlimited green pass," (buy green pass-related query), "fake green pass cost," "fake green pass where to find it" increased from 40% to 350% during the first week of February 2022. Other relevant queries in the same period were "create fake green pass," "how to create fake green pass," "how to have fake green pass" and "fake qr code green pass". Moreover, the query "cancel vaccine" reached 7% of all web searches containing the word "covid" from January 2021 until February 2022. All related queries concerned the cancellation of the COVID-19 vaccine reservation and were reported as "breakout" (i.e., drastically increasing) and were growing during the first week of February 2022 (from 50% to 110%). Nonetheless, this query could be influenced by the number of new COVID-19 infections (cross correlation=0.46, P<.001, lag=4 weeks). In conclusion, government authorities are recommended to take appropriate action to limit these phenomena promptly.
