A wave of misinformation and rumor on CVOID-19 is flooding on social media platforms. We already have other obstacles like a large crowd, a stretched health system and inadequate infrastructure to fight against this virus, but beyond these, familiar foes are rearing their head: misinformation and fake news
Coronavirus has become a substitute for panic in people’s minds globally. It’s perfectly okay to be anxious about the coronavirus pandemic. But with trends of decline set in the source region, the evidence is already there that coronavirus is beatable, and possibly in the shorted period compared to previous pandemics. Every one of us should take precautions and not panic.
Through its vast social media networks, a wave of inaccuracy is spreading on coronavirus under these circumstances any piece of news and information can be spread and made viral, without being authenticated and verified.
