"I think what makes this conspiracy theory more credible is That we do not know a lot about the coronavirus," says Olga.

she says the theories also rely on "so-called experts and scientific Termini, so it looks very demanding".

And Olga has a few simple tips on how you can check what you read is true.

"First of all, stop and don't think to Share right now," says Olga.

"Then check The Source for this claim. Who is the person, the group, the have you seen to make you say That ?"

In other words, do not think That the message in your WhatsApp group call from a friend of a friend, have sent an E-Mail from someone got an email from a doctor.

"read the claims carefully, and examine each single one of them, because it makes so many half-truths the rounds on Social Media .

"And if you are still unsure, after you Share all of your googling and checks only - it is as simple as That . "
