In this paper, we study the behavior of users on Online Social Networks in the context of Covid-19 vaccines in Italy. We identify two main polarized communities: Provax and Novax. We find that Novax users are more active, more clustered in the network, and share less reliable information compared to the Provax users. On average, Novax are more toxic than Provax. However, starting from June 2021, the Provax became more toxic than the Novax. We show that the change in trend is explained by the aggregation of some contagion effects and the change in the activity level within communities. In fact, we establish that Provax users who increase their intensity of activity after May 2021 are significantly more toxic than the other users, shifting the toxicity up within the Provax community. Our study suggests that users presenting a spiky activity pattern tend to be more toxic.
