This article analyzes the Mexican government's political communication in managing the COVID-19 pandemic. We take the daily evening conferences as a starting point, a space in which political and scientific discourses are in tension. Moreover, in these conferences, the government built a narrative that sought to gain support and legitimize the sanitary actions of the federal government, which was criticized for being limp and inefficient. We do a discursive analysis from the socio-semiotic approach and postulate the didactic model of governmental communication.
