to prevent

introduced false rumors have been circulating on Social Media about the contact-tracing apps, by governments, the spread of the coronavirus.

We have searched some of them and other dubious coronavirus claims.

The NHS app

In the UK, the NHS contract-tracing app has been a focus of conspiracies and false rumors. The mobile phone Software is introduced, to find out who an infected person to spread The Virus , But .

A message, we have seen, copied and pasted on Facebook will ask the poster to delete, as you ask contacts from your phone and unfriend you on Facebook as an app "you have permission to access all of your contacts".

This post is falsified, how the app works. There is access to the user's phone contacts, But the records shall not apply, if Two People both have the app within a certain distance of each other for more than a certain amount of time.

another variant has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook claiming That app users walk past someone who later gets "flu" symptoms will be quarantined automatically, along with your family.

But users will receive a notification from the app That they were not to go near someone who have developed symptoms automatically in quarantine. If you live in a household in which no symptoms show, you will be asked, the social consequences-definition of advice and the look for symptoms.

This story, which has been marked, as with "false information" of third parties, the fact checker, on Facebook, also claimed That they might be forced to develop a vaccine under the new coronavirus right.

A few weeks ago, Boris Johnson , a senior aide to The Target of false rumors, which is connected with the contact-tracing app was. There was no truth in the Social Media posts That suggested That Dominic Cummings ' sister worked for a company That is running the app.

fact-checking organisation Full Fact conducted an investigation and found That .

was accompanied by all sorts of misinformation and Conspiracy Theories - But There are some real questions about the privacy policy. The UK has chosen to go to a Central route, But many other countries are in the development of distributed applications. The Team behind the UK app has insisted That this will give the NHS more widespread valuable information, such as The Virus .

" Tracing apps do not require social distancing

contact-tracing features in an interview with an American Doctor who says he "believes in Covid-19".

Asked why the distancing in the place, he says, one reason may be to facilitate "tracking-Software - contact-tracing-programs".

This appears to misinterpret the objectives of the social distancing and the contact tracing and the use of the app, in order to support - this is to prevent the spread of The Virus in addition to the weakening of the social distancing rules.

Dr. Kaufman suggests That The Signal for the "tracking Software " is clear, when people are separated from each other. But That 's not how the apps work, because you are using your device with a unique Digital Signature , regardless of how close it is to a different phone.

In the video of Andrew Kaufman , his opposition is explained have to lock and vaccinations.

Multiple uploads of this post was removed from YouTube for violating its policy.

A page administrator for a Local Group in Hampshire, told The Bbc That they had removed the video, along with several anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown posts in The Last couple of days.

Another administrator to a page That said based in Cornwall, That the disputed posts were fine, as long as the discussion "civil".

Aspirin is not a Covid healing

While we are here, The Last series of widely shared posts is a highlight.

near-identical, Facebook entries, in several languages, say, Italy has to heal before a coronavirus. The posts That falsely claim That Corona Virus is not a virus, But a bacteria caused clots deadly blood.

It is true That Covid-led 19 to blood clots in some of The Most . Bacterial infections develop after the conclusion of the contract a virus. But the disease Covid-19 is caused by a virus.

Bear in mind, the blood clots Can also be caused in the lungs, due to pneumonia from the ordinary flu, and everyone goes to the hospital is clots increased risk of blood.

The posts Go On to argue That antibiotics, aspirin, and anticoagulants (often used in the treatment of blood clots), therefore, the healing coronavirus. You Can 't - There is no known cure, and to treat The Virus , including antibiotics.

The sources of this information are apparently Italian doctors and The Italian Ministry of health. We have by E-Mail to the Ministry for comment.

the posts have been doing the rounds since mid-may in German, English, Tagalog, Russian, and Spanish.
