, authorities have sounded the alarm that"dangerous misinformation" is stopping people from getting tested for the virus.
Celebrity chef Pete Evans was one of the thousands of people that shared a post which said"there is NO pandemic".It said there were"unreliable and contaminated test kits [and] ridiculously inflated death counts" with the real agenda being"enslav[ing] humanity with forced vaccines, microchips, and police state surveillance".Other posts, memes and fake news items have made similar false points in different ways.
"Often in a world where veracity is linked to virality, if something is moving and has a large number of likes or shares, it appears to be authoritative, particularly in a public health crisis."Mr Lewis said it was deeply concerning that"the filters that we've traditionally had to get information out to the public aren't there anymore".Debunking the misinformation
"In Italy and Spain, they had so many cases that the healthcare system overloaded. Some people were basically told to go home and die ... Do we want that to happen here?" she said.
'Peter Lewis of the Australia Institute's Centre for Responsible Technology has been monitoring the dissemination of conspiracy theories online since the start of the pandemic.' And who exactly is Peter Lewis and his institute? No truth ,no test.
Just because you can say something, doesn't mean you should. Spreading misinformation, disinformation & rumours, whether deliberately or due to ignorance is criminal. It will lead to terrible outcomes, including severe illness & death. Please don't become part of the problem.
It’s the truth
China is Murderer! China spread ChinaVirus and killed millions of people in the world CCP_is_terrorist
journalists really do need to stop being disengenuous and publish that the Prime Minister employs, supports and hangs out with people who publish conspircy theory disinformation. The name you are looking for is Tim Stewart, the Morrison, babysitter and hard core QAnon wackadoodle
Misinformation almost universally spread by the far right. See the trolls below.
Yes that’s true, there is quite a lot of misinformation. Including from the ones in charge trying to avoid questioning of their disastrous handling of hotel quarantines.
The misinformation is that it's something we need to lose our minds over.
Anyone testing negative should be given a covid free certificate with their ID details. Only those with a cert should be allowed to go about. So if people don't want to get tested fine, they'll just be turned away from shops, pubs, schools, etc.
We do have a proportion of absolute low brow dickheads in Australia. With luck they might be next to be eliminated by the virus.
It’s actually more to the point that many many high profile scientists and Drs have found conflicting evidence that’s being suppressed. And the funding by Eugenicist Bill Gates. Don’t shoot the messenger.
Yeah I’ll believe the guy that dropped out of year 8 and now spends his time in a white singlet recording himself ranting in his commission house backyard calling the virus a “conspiracy” and “fake”.. Epidemiologist have no idea what they’re on about..🤦🏽♀️ COVIDIOTS COVID19Vic
Fine and jail these idiots
When I was 12 years old, we lined up across the schoolyard to have an injection of the salk vaccine against polio. We just obeyed, no quesationsasked. Imagine if we hadn't? Show these ignoramuses images from the polio epidemic that should shutt hem up.
They peddle the panic and hysteria, it sells better.
Ten thousand Melburnians have said They will never be tested! — Instead They’ll promulgate fake Facebook posts, till the quake Of conspiracies cracks open their head. COVID19Vic auspol
98.5% recovery rate. No threat to the health system. The economy is being destroyed and freedoms taken away while the media spreads fear and hysteria. Get facts based on clinical studies and scientific research, not one liners from government officials.
Celebrities who spread this disinformation should be charged with public endangerment. Their 'reach' is far greater than the average Joe, & due to their fame, their claims imply credibility, so the damage they can do is also far greater.
That’s what dedicated Sky and Fox channels get you. Talk back radio in Oz is hilariously full of these types of loons. Drivel is as drivel does..
Bolt_RSS and the organ grinder Murdoch have a lot to answer for with regard to the COVID19Vic propaganda... auspol COVIDIOTS LNPfail
Will we be seeing “Victoria- the stupid state” on number plates soon?
