Abstract:

Because of the correlation between increasing cases of microcephaly in 2015 and the outbreak of a Zika virus crisis, the Zika Virus Congenital Syndrome was identified as an epidemic, highlighting, therefore, the well-known weaknesses in health care actions. The aim of the article is to analyze the available virtual information network on the provision of health services for children sufferingSCVZ in Rio de Janeiro. Based on Social Media Analysis, data about informationservices and care institutions were collectedvirtual sources using \'Google\' search engine, assessing the relationship among these actors in 2018. The results demonstrated the existence of a fragmented network, with centralization of virtual sources and public services of secondary and tertiary care, highlighting proximity of press sources and public services. The isolation of private services and the lack of interlocution between philanthropic and public services were also highlighted. Furthermore, the information offered was shown to be insufficient and superficial, despite the gap in the formal rehabilitation network. Consequently, evidence suggests the importance of a well-established network of health care services, as well as the necessity of fostering communication through virtual media.
