Abstract


The Covid-19 pandemic has caused widespread concern and apprehension among individuals globally, including those residing in Indonesia. This infectious disease primarily affects the respiratory system. This investigation uses psychopragmatic analysis to analyze various types of discourse that may contribute to the propagation of Covid-19 or coronavirus. Specifically, the study will focus on panic and anxiety speech, which are influenced by the speaker's psychological state. The theoretical framework employed in this research is based on Capano (2013). The utilized research methodology is founded on Sudaryanto's (2015) perspective, employing a distribution approach. The findings of this research indicate that a speaker's psychology can impact the development of Covid-19 in other speakers, as evidenced by the influence of panic and anxiety speech. This phenomenon arises from the experience of panic and anxiety, resulting in an excessive manifestation of fear and anxiety.
