Since March 2020, when the circulation of information on infection rates, deaths and spikes  in cases began, through digital media and their data verification platforms, relatives of those deceased and hospitalized as a result of Covid-19 have used videos and images  on social networks to show and verify what is happening.  This accumulation of information, added to memes, generated a mood of distrust in Mexico, in the face of the different versions being shared. Based on visual methodologies, this essay examines how, through different platforms,  the image is re-appropriated and recombined with other  discursive genres during the Covid-19 pandemic in order  to achieve legitimacy and legibility. Amid an abundance  of information, the figure of the undersecretary for health,  Hugo López-Gatell, a specialist responsible for informing  Mexicans regarding the details of the pandemic, figured  prominently in efforts to disseminate figures approximating the truth. The image of López-Gatell as an emblem  of truth and national sovereignty stood in contrast to the  contradictory discourse of the current president, Andrés  Manuel López Obrador. Este ensayo examina la reproducción y circulación de  videos, imágenes y memes para la construcción de regímenes de verdad en la esfera pública mexicana durante  la pandemia de la covid-19. Desde marzo de 2020, fecha  en que comenzó la circulación de información sobre contagios, muertes y repuntes de casos, medios digitales y  sus plataformas de verificación de datos, familiares de  personas fallecidas y hospitalizadas de covid-19 se movilizaron en redes sociales videos e imágenes para evidenciar  y comprobar lo que acontecía. Este cúmulo de información, sumada a los memes, generó un estado de ánimo  de desconfianza en México ante las diferentes versiones  compartidas. A partir de metodologías visuales, este ensayo examina cómo la imagen a través de las diferentes plataformas es apropiada y recombinada con otros géneros  discursivos en la pandemia de la covid-19 para la obtención de legitimidad y legibilidad. Dentro de la abundante  información, la figura del subsecretario de salud, Hugo Ló pez-Gatell, especialista y encargado en dar a conocer a los  mexicanos los detalles de la pandemia figuró de manera.Universidad Cientifica del Sur2020-12-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.cientifica.edu.pe/index.php/desdeelsur/article/view/76710.21142/DES-1202-2020-0030Desde el Sur; Vol. 12 No. 2 (2020)Desde el Sur; Vol. 12 Núm. 2 (2020)Desde el Sur; v. 12 n. 2 (2020)2415-09592076-267410.21142/DES-1202-2020reponame:Revistas - Universidad Científica del Surinstname:Universidad Científica del Surinstacron:CIENTÍFICAspahttps://revistas.cientifica.edu.pe/index.php/desdeelsur/article/view/767/733Derechos de autor 2020 Desde el Surinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistas.cientifica.edu.pe:article/7672020-12-29T15:08:12Z
