Abstract

Tweets using “#HodgkinsLymphoma” were analyzed to better understand how COVID-19 impacted social media use among adolescent and young adult cancer patients/caregivers. Tweets pre- and post- onset of the COVID-19 pandemic showed significant differences in confidence and authenticity word use. Level of analytic thinking and emotional tone did not significantly differ.
