COVID-19 has caused a large number of online public opinion incidents. How to timely and effectively guide the resulting network public opinion has become an urgent problem to be solved. This paper collects more than 130,000 original Weibo posts during the Wuhan “city closure” incident, and analyses the topic characteristics of the incident on the basis of user classification through topic models and community detection algorithms. It was found that during this period, the government responded quickly to the epidemic and gained public support. For different Weibo users, officially certified users mainly publish information about the epidemic and epidemic prevention measures. Personally certified users mainly forwarded and transmitted official information actively, and they also expressed their opinions and made suggestions. Non-certified users actively expressed their emotions and opinions, so they were important users that reflect public opinion.
