Specialist disinformation and social media reporterIn recent weeks a number of celebrities have engaged with conspiracies being spread online. That includes theories linking the pandemic to 5G networks and vaccines, as well as long-standing conspiracies. These have fuelled conversations in Facebook groups as well as on Instagram and Twitter.
His approach of “asking questions” is one adopted by a number of celebrities who have endorsed conspiracies. The head of the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, Rasmus Nielsen, warns that this trend is dangerous. Earlier this week men's number-one tennis player Novak Djokovic tested positive for coronavirus, having fuelled conspiracies about mandatory vaccinations online.
People's lives! Why?
Very concerning
😢💗🙏🏽
No - 65K+ plus you rancid .gov lackeys and despicable post-truth apolgists
bbclaurak Given that there is a massive disparity among the four nations' daily coronavirus statistics, please break down the figures. It's the best evidence we have that lockdown can and does work when conducted properly.
Unbelievable and beaches full of sunbathers, My condolences to everyone who has gone trought tough times 🙏
bbclaurak Meaningless. Died with, not from. Massive difference
Yea whatever!
bbclaurak When is someone going to report latest ONS data showing a rise in infections?
This Virus was spread around the world by Chinese Tourists and Chinese international students and people who have money to travel many times a year🤑🤧, they all have blood on their hands 🤨🤧😡😎
In January when the Virus was Epidemic in China,thousands of Chinese students were welcomed at Heathrow by different UK Universities officials 🤑🤑
bbclaurak Is it just me or does anyone else think that this will all end up at The European Court of Human Rights?
With confused instructions from the government and reliance on sense based decision of British public, God help us with these numbers. We are yet to pay the price of Brexit decision and now COVID19
'WITH ' being the key word . You don't half love to play around with words to ensure that you extract maximum fear from the general public . You're as transparent as tracing paper 👍
bbclaurak Still haven't got the figures of how many died 'from' covid.
bbclaurak Come back to me with the numbers mid August, they will be horific. Packed beaches, pubs and restaurants. No masks, 3 feet social distancing and poor testing. Guess what ? People will clap the NHS again to save us from our own stupidity.
149 is still twice the number of Grenfell victims, and many more than died at Hillsborough. These figures remain an outrage.
It's in the interests of the BBC to be pro-lockdown and pro-fearmongering, as they receive money from Bill Gates. Any lessening of lockdown and fear will thwart Gates' vaccine ambitions. See:
Media have brainwashed people into thinking every death is someone hooked up to a ventilator. 99% are dying of normal other serious illness, but tested positive after death....or in many cases, not tested at all. Covid is just “assumed”. Malpractice basically.
WITH! WITH! WITH! NOT OF! WITH, YOU MISLEADING PROPGANDIST BULLSHITTERS!!!! FEAR MONGERING NOTHING MORE! PEOPLE, WAKE UP! BEFORE ITS TO LATE!!!!!
BoristheButcher
England. Please stop conflating the Welsh & Scottish figures into this. Just report the English figures
Can we keep the deaths per day going? Like even when the virus fucks off? Really brightens up my day.
So why does Johnson think we are winning..!!!!!!!
So what exactly are people dying from? As diseases have been eradicated since the outbreak of CV19 No cancer no cardiovascular disease etc etc
Tell Bournemouth
afl2277 So, around 50,000 people die every month, please tell me, how many of these died SOLELY of COVID-19?
Sorry to read this - would be very useful to know what areas...
No 2nd wave is coming 💁♂️
bbclaurak What about the daily admissions? With no press briefing where do we get that information?
Why are the BBC, ITV & Sky News not leading with this video? Where is Sadiq Kahn? Where is Cressida Dick? Do Police lives no longer matter? Has London become a lawless state? This is insanity.
More on the way me thinks!
Ffs it's just not ending is it? And the way things are going it's haunting on a daily basis we have our government to thank for the biggest catastrophe of ignorance negligence and basically..
Just under 500 deaths reported and increase back into 4 figures positive cases. Are we really in the right place to open up? We seem to be driven by open up mantra, I can’t help but think first wave not over never mind 2nd wave, it’s madness
remain_eu Hopefully we wont see the increase in cases now occuring in the US
UK gov still not transparent about testing?
Will we ever get down to single figures? Not in the near future it seems.
bbclaurak Died 'with' coronavirus. Is that like dying 'with' blonde hair? Or dying 'with' herpes, but not 'from' herpes'? Ur really not helping with this morbid fascination over an ill defined death toll. Whens your coverage of the 100s of thousands of missed screenings of cancer patients?
Thanks for this update . How about news about that riot in Brixton? I.e “news” as opposed to a politically inspired blame game?
Let the firstwave continue until winter then we will get a massive second wave. COVID19 lockdownuk
bbclaurak At least we’re not being lied to on a daily basis anymore...
bbclaurak Up on the Thursday figure last week. Meanwhile Italy, France & Spain's figures are almost nil. Very worrying.
RIP And condolences to all the families. CoronaUpdate
*With* not *of* The numbers are total BS Most of these died of heat attacks, cancer, liver disease... More than 95% of Covid test positive persons develop mild symptoms at most. Thankfully I’ve never, and will never pay the TV licence so at least I’m not paying for your lies.
Expect a little peak in cases in the next couple of days as people who die due to heat, mysteriously test positive for SARS-CoV-2.
bbclaurak This is still seriously high.......I hate to say it but it's going to get higher, lockdown was over weeks ago people just seemed to give up for various reasons.
bbclaurak Another day when England beats the whole EU
Well it's not bad. April is the worst.
bbclaurak Why do people say the second wave is coming... we are still on the first... absolute bonkers to ease lockdown as much as Bojo has in England.
Honestly who cares anymore
bbclaurak RIP condolences and love to all the families concerned. Seems such a sorry waste of lives 😔
June 25 (GMT) Updates 1,118 new cases and 149 new deaths
bbclaurak Any idea who? How old? Where are they? Are they working? In care homes?
How many would still be alive if not for the BLM 'protests' last week?
RIP (and condolences to those families) x
bbclaurak Does the daily cases of some 1,100 include the 850 from NI?
