Covid-19 vaccine does not produce magnetic properties in the human body.
Lemon juice onto the nose will not kill Coronavirus.
It also won’t keep the clove bundles, cardamom, limestone and gada in the pocket.
More than one and a half years into a pandemic, India has emerged as the largest source of information Covid, with 1 of 6 false information that came out of the country, a new study had been found.
Studies at the ‘International Federation of Library and Institution Associations’ Sage, by a researcher from the University of Alberta in Canada, surpassing 9,657 wrong information sheets in 138 countries.
This includes non-English content and covers a period from January 1 last year until March 1 this year.
“The data used in this study was collected from the IFCN website (Network of International Facts Examination), which currently has the most comprehensive information data Covid-19 collected from around the world,” the author, Dr.
MD Sayeed al-Age, was told.
This study found social media is a wrong information manufacturer, counted 85% of it.
Internet-based sources are 91% of all Covid fake news.
Among countries, India is the largest source (18%), followed by Brazil (9%) and the US (8.6%).
The number of incorrect information was also the highest in India, at 16%, followed by the US (9.7%) and Brazil (8.6%).
“Because there are limited empirical studies on this problem, the reason can only be considered now.
I suspect that the infrastructure of information and communication is weak, less information literacy (digital) and information awareness among people, and prejudice in Indian society can It is the main reason for higher information in Covid-19 in India, “Al-times said.
It is also possible that the dissemination of the wrong information is associated with how bad the pandemic is in a country.
“It seems that the wrong information in the top countries is rather consistent with the number of victims they experienced during the pandemic …
for example, in the second list of information that is incorrect Covid-19 and victims of Covid-19, 10 countries below are common.
Among the top 15 : India, United States, Brazil, Spain, France, Turkey, Colombia, Argentina, Italy and Mexico, “said the newspaper.
The top of the wrong information also appeared to signal the link.
“Most countries, including India, the United States, Brazil and Spain, experienced a surge in the wrong information in March and July 2020.
However, several countries, such as Georgia, experienced waves from September to December 2020.
Good ones were locked up and the count of information It is not wise in that country hinted that the prevalence of incorrect information could be consistent with the number of victims …
because this study could not set this correlation, this empirical research was needed to explain this assumption.
“That was what the classic study was said about information and rumors.
“…
a misleading information surge when the crisis first appears, people become nervous or fear, and reliable information is not available or cannot be provided,” said Al-times.
“The latest study also found that the prevalence of information that incorrectly reduced during a pandemic with time and consumption of reliable media content.” He observed that the wrong information peaked in March 2020 globally and began to fall gradually.
The paper was added, “However, estimates show that the number will likely increase and remain at 955 incorrect information sheets in March-September 2021.”
