La COVID-19 transformó el mundo tal como lo conocíamos. El sector público y privado de múltiples países unieron esfuerzos para desarrollar vacunas que pusieran fin a la pandemia. Sin embargo, esto no sería posible si es que la población, considerando sus derechos y deberes, no decidiera voluntariamente recibir la vacuna para su propia protección y la de las personas a su al rededor. El propósito de esta investigación fue determinar si las fake news son lo que causa que las personas decidan no vacunarse en el contexto de la COVID-19, para entender qué enfoque deben tener las políticas públicas para contrarrestar la desinformación sobre el tema. Para ello se realizaron entrevistas a personas antivacuna mayores de edad que residen en Lima Metropolitana y tienen una presencia digital. El resultado de esta investigación mostró que las fake news no son el factor principal que influye en la decisión de las personas antivacuna, sino que la confianza en las fake news son una consecuencia del problema raíz: las personas antivacuna no confían ni en el gobierno, ni en sus capacidades para manejar una pandemia, ni en los mensajes que transmiten por medio de canales de comunicación tradicional y digital, por lo tanto recurren a otras fuentes que se alinean a sus creencias, cosmovisiones y experiencias previas, para encontrar una lógica que les permita hacer frente a la pandemia por su propia cuenta.COVID-19 transformed the world as we knew it. Public and private sectors of multiple countries joined forces in order to develop vaccines that could end the pandemic. However, this would not be possible if the population, considering their rights and responsibilities, did not voluntarily decide to receive the vaccine, for their own protection and of the people around them. The purpose of this research was to determine if, in the context of COVID-19, fake news is what causes people to decide not to get vaccinated, in the interest of understanding what approach public policies should have to counteract disinformation regarding this topic. To obtain this information, ‘anti-vaxxers’ of legal age, who live in the Metropolitan Lima area and have an online presence, were interviewed. The result of this research showed that fake news is not the main factor influencing the decision of anti-vaxxers, but that trust in fake news is a consequence of the root problem: anti-vaxxers in Lima do not trust the government, nor their abilities to manage a pandemic, nor the messages they transmit through traditional and digital media; therefore, they seek other sources of information that align with their beliefs, worldviews, and experiences, to find a logical thought process that allows them to survive the pandemic by their own means.
