Prevalence of low-credibility information on twitter during the covid-19 outbreak figure explanation

This graph compares the prevalence of Twitter links to low-credibility sources, the NY Times, and the CDC website by tweet, user, retweeting, and bots. The graph illustrates that for the most part, Tweets contained a decent amount of links to credible sites. However, there is a significantly higher proportion of low-credibility sources that were contributed by bots.
