6 fakes news on the Covid-19. 1) The covid-19 die when he is exposed to temperatures above 27°C. It is necessary to drink broths, hot drinks, herbal teas and have hot showers and baths. THIS IS WRONG. You need a temperature well above 65 degrees celsius for kill the covid-19. Have a hot bath or a hot shower will not prevent you from catching the covid-19. 2) Cocaine kills the virus. THIS IS WRONG. Cocaine does not protect against covid-19, cocaine is an addictive drug. 3) Cell technologie 5G is linked to the covid-19 pandemic. THIS IS WRONG. There is no evidence that the healts effects of covid-19 can be linked to 5G. 4) The coronavirus was created in the laboratory by researchers. THIS IS WRONG. It’s just a conpiracy theory. 5) Containment lowered the pollution in France. THIS IS WRONG. Air pollution has not decreased, but better air quality has been observed in different cities. 6) Holding your breath for ten seconds lets you know if you are infected. THIS IS WRONG. It is not an appropriate test to find out if you are infected by the covid-19.

Fake news: Coronavirus MaĂŤl, 3C
Warm water kills the virus • Warm water ( 27°) kills the virus. It’s a fake news warm water kills the virus at 67°.
alcohol and chlorine kills coronavirus • Spraying alcoholic beverages or chlorine on you or clothing kills the virus. It’s a fake news alcohol and chlorine don’t kill the coronavirus it’s just harmful to health.
Black skin is resistant to coronavirus • black skin is so effective that it cannot be infected with coronavirus. It’s false, professor Muyembe turned out that black people are affected by the virus in Congo.
Holidays are postponed • The Ministry of National Education announces the postponement of the start of the summer holidays to 31 July. It’s a fake news because the Ministry says that this is not true and that it does not intend to change the calendar of the holidays.
Iceland has discovered its entire population • Tweets claim Iceland is testing all of its inhabitants for coronavirus. It’s false there is a misinterpretation. Iceland tests all those who wish to do so: the sick and those who do not have symptoms.
5G is responsible for the spread of the virus. • A video claims that the virus spread through the waves of 5G. The virus doesn't spread through electromagnetic waves. It is caught by contact. Maë
Fake News coronavirus :
OcĂŠane S, 3C
Fake news 1 : The first fake news is a man who believes the coronavirus can be transmitted by a shower. The coronavirus spreads by splutterings.
Fake news 2 : The second fake news was written by British media. They have said that a laboratary sought volonteers to inject the virus for 4000₏. Fact checkers (those who check if the information is true) have explained than it wasn’t research on covid.
Fake news 3 : The third fake news is a man who claims than the virus has been created in laboratory. He said with a document, the virus SarsCov-2 (at the origin of the disease Covid-19) has been created voluntarily in 2004. Whereas this document deals with another kind of coronavirus.
Fake news 4 : The fourth fake news is a publication on Facebook which says that to find out if you are infected, you must hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. It’s false, only a test in laboratory allows to know if you are infected.
Fake news 5 : The fifth fake news is a video which can confirm than the virus is spread by 5G. But the virus doesn’t spread by electromagnetic waves. We catch it by contact (kissing for example).
Fake news 6 : The sixth fake news is publications on Facebook which certify that every thousand years, a disease spreads in the world. In reality, these diseases have spread in 1347-1352 for a Plague and for spanish flu, it hit in 1918-1919 not in 1920.
