Abstract: This article discusses the negative impact of populism on covid-19. In the article we are trying to analyze the essence of populism. We believe that populism is not an ideology or a phenomenon characteristic of any part of the political spectrum. Its occurrence is the same across the political spectrum. Populism can also be linked to the covid-19 pandemic. As part of this connection, there have been several misconceptions surrounding the pandemic. These are misconceptions that deny and vulgarize the pandemic, cast doubt on the effectiveness of vaccination, cast doubt on the Sputnik V vaccine, as well as other misconceptions and untruths. The article provides a deeper analysis of these lies, and also points out the perniciousness of their connection with populist politics.
