'COVID-19 outbreak has seen a massive 'infodemic'—an over-abundance of information—some accurate and some not—that makes it hard for people to find trustworthy sources and reliable guidance when they need it.'

March 5, 2020, 10:36 AMFacebook, Amazon and Google are helping the World Health Organization combat fake news surrounding COVID-19.and hygiene practices? The World Health Organization thinks so.

"Therefore, WHO is working with various social media platforms, including TikTok, to help us reach the right audience , as well as to detect spread of misinformation on the new coronavirus. We understand that different platforms might have their specific audience, hence important to make trustworthy information available where people are looking for it."Director-General of the WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, attends a news conference on the coronavirus in Geneva, Switzerland, Feb.

"We're focused on making sure everyone can access credible and accurate information," Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a statement this week."If you search for coronavirus on Facebook, you'll see a pop-up that directs you to the World Health Organization or your local health authority for the latest information."

Even Facebook is not reliable

AND 141,000 BABIES WERE KILLED LAST YEAR DUE TO ABORTION AND ZERO COVERAGE BY THE CORRUPT LEFT WING DEMOCRAT ACTIVIST PROPAGANDA OUTLETS....

In their battle for watchers, readers, and listeners the media has turned this into a global alarmist frenzy. Flu kills many thousands more people every year.

Trump lies start there.

It's all bullshit, that's all you really need to know.

infectious diseases have spread not only to the biological layer but also to the information layer.

FU FB

Covid-19 has mutated into two strains, type L and S. One vaccine may not be enough to cover both. A patient in Seattle tested positive for both strains. L is more virulent and aggressive, and is very prevalent in China.

That's what's happening when people take surveys all damn day don't know what the hell's going on in the real world

Trump is the one spreading falsehood and lies. The media need to call him out and hold him accountable.

The flu kills 0.01% 1918 pandemic killed 1.2% this kills 3.4% prove me wrong with facts other then trumps! And i will prove im correct with statements from experts around the world. Trump misinformation will kill you! COVD19. Covid_19

My father in law said “the flu kills more people.” I said, “after vacation, we were thinking we should stay away from you guys for 14 days just in case. We won’t die from it, but you and your wife would at least go to hospital if you got it. Your lungs/health aren’t the best. 1/

Park the panic and confusion. What we are actually seeing is a coordinated effort to control the collateral damage of a black-op hit on the governments and economies of China and Iran.

You mean those responsible are partnering with social media to try to suppress the truth. People already know it was intentionally created in a US lab and you guys are too little too late. Always way behind. There will be No immunity for treason. Enjoy the show 🤷‍♂️🙂

This is good, but you still have media obsessively posting about it all day every day and - whether stories are factual or not - that’s certainly driving people to the go hoard milk and bread side of the brain.

Thanks to MSM and FakeNews they scared everyone with propaganda. More people die from mosquitoes you don’t see OFF flying off the shelves. DemocratsHateAmerica SocialismKills

Do NOT listen to Trump. DO NOT!

Sounds like all media in general. Never know who to believe.
