Abstract: This is an excerpt from a doctoral research in Cognition and Language that promotes a cognitive and discursive analysis about the dynamics of the collapse in the health system established in the communication discourse of the management of the COVID-19 Pandemic in the state of Espírito Santo. The analysis is based on the unfolding of the conceptual metaphor SITUATION-PROBLEM IS A PRESSURIZED CONTAINER and is structured in the dimensions of the experience of force dynamics (Talmy, 2000) by the theoretical-methodological sequence: the pressure in the container; impending evil (collapse); the relief proposal and the container strengthening proposal. As a main result, it was observed that the dynamics of the collapse was used as a cognitive-discursive-rhetorical resource to justify the political action of giving priority to opening ICU beds to the detriment of investments in field hospitals. Furthermore, the imminent collapse was discursively constructed as the close threat that structured the Rhetoric of fear already announced by Aristotle and Charaudeau as a fundamental piece in the machinery of managing passions (fear).
