description This text focuses on the review of some features of contemporary society: risk and uncertainty, the fear of humanity in general, and the culture of mistrust, particularly in Mexico. This is part of the precedents of the effervescence of rumors as a cultural and emotional story, the pandemic of ah1n1 flu in the year 2009 in Mexico.

In this case, the result from specific existential and local ancestral fears and global contemporary risks: distrust in governmental authorities, fear of an American invasion and fear toward the international pharmaceutical industry are the most noticeable examples in this case study.
