Emotional profiling conveys information about basic affective dimensions such how positive/negative or how arousing a message is, and also includes the analysis of more fine-grained emotions such as fear or trust that might be associated with the lockdown and people's hopes for the future [9, 30, 22] . By extracting individual words from the hashtags of a given network, it is possible to reconstruct the emotional profile of the social discourse around the focal hashtags #sciacalli, #italylockdown and #iorestoacasa. Not surprisingly, the social discourse around #sciacalli shows a less prominent positive emotional profile, with a higher probability of featuring hashtags eliciting anxiety, negative valence and increased states of arousal, as it can be seen in Figure 2 (center, top) .	./cache/cord-230294-bjy2ixcj.txt	./txt/cord-230294-bjy2ixcj.txt
