The diffusion of Covid-19 in Italy, with considerable differences between North and South, has not only produced different effects from an epidemiological and socio-economic point of view, but also effects in terms of communication and representation of issues related to the emergency. This study stems from the question as to whether there are also territorial differences in the perception and social narrative profiles of the pandemic that can be defined as the geography of narratives (Covid-Issues)? How much are these narrations affected by the real geography of the contagion (Covid-Spread)? The question is addressed by analyzing a corpus of geolocalized tweets produced between the March lockdown and the June re-openings using text mining techniques and GIS analysis.
