Impacts of misinformation during the Pandemic
- The indirect and direct impacts, such as instances of 5G towers being burned down due to conspiracy theories linking them to Coronavirus (Parveen and Waterson, 2020)
- The misinformation surrounding COVID-19 pandemic is especially damaging, since any mis-steps can pose a serious public health risk by leading to exponential spread of the disease and accidental death due to self-medication (Vigdor, 2020 )
