We鈥檙e in the middle of an 鈥渋nfodemic鈥� 鈥� that鈥檚 the slightly clunky word the World Health Organisation has used to describe the deluge of information about coronavirus.
While some of it is accurate, the facts swim in a vast sea of more dubious content 鈥� misinformation, disinformation, conspiracy theories, unproven cures and bad health advice.
So what can we all do to stop the spread of misinformation to our friends, family and contacts on social media? We鈥檝e talked to the experts and have collected seven key tips:

1. Stop and think
2. Check your source
3. Ask yourself, could it be a fake?
4. If you鈥檙e unsure whether it鈥檚 true 鈥� don鈥檛 share.
5. Check each fact, individually.
6. Beware emotional posts.
7. Think about biases

Think of it as the digital equivalent of washing your hands.
