With help from editor Ben Bradlee, Graham races to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spans three decades and four U. S. presidents.

The messages are directly exposed to the people, where the myths are.

A Facebook spokesman Said , to join the movement, "people who may be in interaction with harmful misinformation about The Virus with The Truth from authoritative sources, in which case, if you see or hear these claims back away from Facebook".

The Changes were prompted by a major study of misinformation on The Platform in six languages, that of Avaaz, a crowd-funded activist group.

researchers say millions of Facebook users continue to coronavirus false information will be suspended without any warning on The Platform .

The Group of some of The Most dangerous untruths had received hundreds of thousands of views, including the claims, such as "Black People are resistant against coronavirus and Coronavirus destroyed by Chlorine Dioxide ".

Avaaz researchers analyzed a sample of More Than 100 pieces of Facebook coronavirus misinformation on the website of the German, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Italian and French versions.

The research found that:

Facebook says that it is the expansion of the multilingual network of fact-checkers granting of scholarships, and partnerships with trusted organizations in More Than 50 languages.

Fadi Quran, Campaign Director at Avaaz Said : "Facebook is sitting at the epicenter of the misinformation crisis.

"But the business is turning a critical corner to clean up today, this toxic information ecosystem, will be The First Social Media platform to warn all the users that have been exposed to coronavirus misinformation, and steer life-saving facts. "

One of the untruths that followed researchers, was the allegation that the people could rid The Body of The Virus by drinking a lot of water, and gargle with salt or vinegar. The Post was shared More Than 31,000 times before finally, the marked according to the Avaaz to Facebook.

But More Than 2,600 clones of The Post stay on The Platform , with nearly 100,000 interactions, and most of these clone posts are No Warning signs of Facebook have.

Mark Zuckerberg , Facebook founder and chief executive, defended his company in an online post, saying: "On Facebook and Instagram, we have now directed More Than two billion people to authoritative resources, on our Covid-19 Information Center, and educational pop-ups, with More Than 350 million people to learn more.

"If part of the content contains malicious misinformation, which could lead to the threat of physical harm, then we take it down. We have taken away thousands of false information about Covid-19, including the theories, such as drinking bleach, heals The Virus or physical distancing is ineffective in preventing the spread. For other incorrect information, once it is rated, false, fact-checkers, we reduce its distribution, and apply the warnings on the labels with more context and find duplicates. "

Mr Zuckerberg insists that the warning pop-work, ups, with 95% of the users choose, not the content view, if the representation with the names.

"I think this last step is a good step from Facebook, and we have seen a much more active attitude of false information in this pandemic than in other situations, such as the US elections," says Emily Taylor , associate fellow at Chatham House and an expert in social-media-misinformation.

"We don't know if it will make a big difference, but it's got to be worth a try, since the difference between the wrong information in a health crisis and an election is literally a matter of life and death," She Said .
