Transcript - “Health dept. warns against 'fake news' on coronavirus” from CNN Philippines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssta03IRdDs Reporter: Health officials can’t stress it enough. Right now, there are no confirmed cases of the Novel Corona Virus in the country. Concerns have been raised regarding the spread of the virus especially amid rumors spreading through text messages and social media that there are confirmed cases in some hospitals in Binondo and Alabang. Secretary Doque: Let's not be used by unscrupulous groups whose agenda is to propagate infodemic. Infodemic means the spread of false or baseless pieces of information because otherwise this problem this misinformation can be more viral than the virus that we all are guarding against. Reporter: But there are 11 patients under investigation for possible infection the Health Department released this map of where they are two are in Metro Manila specifically in Muntinlupa and Pasay. Three in Aklan, three in Cebu, and one each in Tacloban El Nido Palawan and Camiguin. They're all foreign nationals Chinese, Brazilian, American. All of them with previous travel from Wuhan China. German, and Secretary Doque: So there shouldn't be any cause for alarm just because we flash the areas where the PUIs come from doesn't mean that those areas are infected with novel coronavirus because there's ton. Chito Avelino: What we know is that the one in Cebu the five-year-old kid has been discharged already and there our son had been on the process of being released now.

But bogus stories can reach more people more quickly via social media that what good old fashioned viral emails could accomplish in years past. A lot of these viral claims aren't news at all but fiction satire and efforts to fool readers into thinking they're for real. Here are some strategies to shield yourself from fake news. Are you familiar with the source? Is it legitimate? Has it been reliable in the past? If not you may not want to trust it. If a provocative headline drew your attention read a little further before you decide to pass along the shocking information. Even in legitimate news stories the headline doesn't always tell the whole story. But fake news particularly efforts to be satirical can include several revealing signs in the text. One fake story even attributed a quote to a dolphin. If that had been real you could argue they buried the lede. Another telltale sign of a fake story is often the byline-if there even is one and in some cases the authors are not even real. to pull one over on the reader. These posts are also designed to encourage clicks and generate money for the creator through ad revenue but they arent news. We know this is difficult. Confirmation bias leads people to put more stock in information that confirms their beliefs and discount information that doesn't. But the next time you're automatically appalled at some social media posts concerning say a politician you oppose, take a moment to check it out try this simple test. What other stories have been posted to the news websitethat is the source of the story that just popped up in your social media feed? You may be predisposed to believe a story about a politician you don't like. But if the alleged news site also features Secretary Doque: One story was credited to a doctor who won 14 Peabody Awards and a handful appealed surprises which would be very impressive if it wasn't also totally made-up. Many times these bogus stories will cite official or official sounding sources but once you look into it this source doesn't back up the claim some false stories aren't completely faked but rather distortions of real events. These mendacious claims can take a legitimate news story and twist what it says or even claim that something that happened long ago is related to current events. One deceptive website took a story that was over a year old from CNN and slapped on a new misleading headline and publication date. So on top of the deception there was copyright infringement. Remember there is such a thing as satire. Normally it's clearly labeled as such and sometimes it's even funny, but it isn't the news. And then there's the more debatable forms of satire designed a story about guardians from Antarctica retaliating against America by hitting New Zealand with an earthquake, maybe you should think twice before sharing. And yes that earthquake story is a real example of a fake story that popped up. We know you're busy and some of this debunking takes time but fact checkers get paid to do this kind of work between factcheck.org snopes.com. The Washington Post fact checker and politifact.com it's likely at least one has already fact checked the latest viral claim to pop up in your social media newsfeed. And remember newsreaders themselves remain the first line of defense against fake news. To see more go to fact-check org. 3. Transcript - “The spread of coronavirus fake news: What you shouldn’t fall for | Covid-19 Special” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qn60qhCSel0 Order silk really silver is the weapon against coronavirus on other strains of the coronavirus and has been able to eliminate it within 12 hours [Music] Jimbacca this televangelist has now been sued for selling these fake coronavirus cures. Fraudsters are wasting no time to make money from your fear. The hoax likely originated from a white strip spread belief in Silver's antibacterial properties. Some toothbrush brands have hyped the metal to in order to boost sales but scientists agree silver has no effect against the corona virus. In fact exposure to collodial silver can be toxic. Times of crisis are always great times for fake news and propaganda. And the more ridiculous that claims it seems the more traction they gain on social media. Be it tips like drinking alcohol to kill the virus and fight the disease. As tempting as it may sound for some it isn't all religious claims that Corona was a punishment dished out by God or mother nature. Our team from DW science has put together a selection of some of the most outrageous fake news about covid19. Whatever you do, don't try this at home. Page 4 of 6
This clip widely shared on whats app is just one example of the many coronavirus related stories circulating online. The problem as the disease continues to spread fake news is going viral too in India. A picture purporting to show an Italian boy taking his life after all his family members died from coronavirus went viral but a fact check revealed that the footage actually shows the suicide of a woman before the outbreak and this photo doesn't show dead bodies on the streets of Italy it's actually an art installation in Germany. Also doing the rounds conspiracy theories among them but a South Korean series forecast the corona virus outbreak back in 2018. Just one of many false stories describing the pandemic as a premeditated event. Platforms like Facebook are rife breeding grounds for the spread of fake news. The social networking giant is among several companies pledging to take stronger action to prevent the spread of Misinformation. Others too are doing their bit to make sure people are getting the right information about Corona. A service called Africa check recently had to rebuff a South African mayor's claim that a vaccine against corona virus had been developed now while much of Asia seems just over the hill and most of Europe is in mid-battle against Covid19. Africa is bracing for impact and fake news is not helping society is there to prepare for the onslaught. M1: Let's bring in Vincent Ng’ete he's deputy Kenya editor at Africa check and joins us from Naorobi. Vincent how much of a problem is corona fake news in African countries right now. V: Thanks for having me. Coronavirus misinformation is a big big problem and he reason is that the more people believe misinformation then they will not follow the instructions not going to wash their hands they won't practice social distancing and they will not stay at home so these things mean that if they don't pay attention the virus spreads more. And on top of that you have people trying certain fake cures or medicines that have been not to work. We've seen in Nigeria for example that people have been poisoned by chloroquine because they heard it could work. M: Hmm that means it what's the weirdest piece of fake news you've come across so far? M: Do people across Africa generally trust their governments to take the right measures of a false that misinformation are on fertile ground? V: People are more or less trustful of their governments and the reason they are is because they know that government really can do the most to protect them what we have seen is a bit of dissatisfaction with the measures that are being taken. So V: take some orange peels and you boil them and you inhale the steam you can cure coronavirus and we know that's not true because your body temperature internal body temperature never really changes all you end up doing is burning. M: And why on earth are people actually believing this kind of stuff well people believe misinformation particularly about health because it ties into their fears. People are afraid of diseases that are difficult to cure and so this gives them hope and when you give them hope they will try these figures they will buy medicines fake medicines if they have to. You should notice that really we don't see a lot of fake news about a disease like malaria because we all knew it's curable and the medicine is clearly accessible. Well the weirdest I have come across is that if you for example in Kenya we know that for example the number of tests have been rising but there's a concern that they are not enough and also the fact that a lot ofpeople live in an informal economy in Kenya so they have to go out every day and money and it's very difficult to tell people like that to stay at home and self-isolate unless you're providing them with money so that they can stay inside. M: V: grow their influence online and they'll spread anything that is fake whether it's about coronavirus or politics it doesn't matter. Then there are people who want to actually make a business selling fake cures so that you can actually spend your money to to buy a fake cure or to do things that are not true, for example orange peel water, and then finally you've got people who want to drive a political agendas so they're going to capitalize on people's fears to spread these stories and that way spread the agenda that's probably the system is wrong and therefore you should follow me because I have the solution. So there are people doing it digitally online we have technological reasons others have commercial reasons. M: Vincent Ng’ete the deputy Kenya editor Africa Tech thank you very much for joining us from Nairobi. Targeting today our science correspondent Derek Williams we'll deal with some of the most violent fate and false claims about the corona virus. Was this virus genetically modified to be used as a biological weapon? D: This was one of those conspiracy theories that was bound to pop up in the midst of a global pandemic. Right I mean Who benefits from these fake news? there have been too many books and movies with that as a plot line. But a team of researchers that studied the genetic makeup of the virus recently published some compelling arguments for why it wasn't engineered. but must have naturally evolved. First they said SARS COV 2 most closely resembles corona viruses found in bats that don't cause disease in humans and of course any evil scientist trying to build a super bug would have started with one that's already been proven to make us sick. Second in our computer models the changes to the SARSCOV to genetic sequence that allowed it to start infecting us just don't look like they should work very well they aren't mutations that any bioengineer would have chosen if they were trying to build a super bug because the models would have said they don't really work. So no, the corona virus was not designed by humans. Can supplements like fish oil, zinc, or vitamins help? D: Supplements are an area nutrition where there's very little consensus in the scientific community under ordinary circumstances much less in the midst of a pandemic the idea that. You can somehow boost your immune system. I mean what does that mean anyway. The answer to this question is a A lot of people benefit there are people who want to Page 5 of 6
resounding no the only thing that we currently think will prevent you from catching the virus is if you've had it already and developed antibodies that will prevent you from getting it again. I'm not saying you should stop taking your fish oil or your vitamins just don't expect them to keep you from catching Covid 19. There is a rumor that loss of smell is a sign of a severe case of Covid 19. Can we hear more about that? D: A recent large-scale study in Britain that collected data from hundreds of thousands of people self-reporting on an app showed that from those who eventually tested positive for the disease around 60% had that symptom to a greater or lesser extent that certainly sounds pretty convincing. The only problem is that losing the sense of smell or taste is also closely associated with other respiratory infections. It's a lot more common than you might think that's why as of this morning at least the WHO was still reviewing the issue and hadn't yet decided to add the loss of smell or taste to the official list of symptoms of corona virus infection but that could very well happen in the coming days if there is enough evidence to support it. 4. Transcript - “State of PH education amid Covid-19 pandemic” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS2-iR32goY. Reporter: This public elementary school in Quezon City has one of the most number of students in Metro Manila. By now at least 50 young students should be crammed into this small space instead we are seeing an empty classroom void of any activity. Schools remain closed until August 24th because of the covet 19 scare. And even then things aren ot going to be the same. Sec. Briones: There will be no face-to-face classes and sessions until we are assured of the safety of our children and our teachers Reporter: Authorities believe schooling can continue even from home. They are implementing distance or remote learning, a method that delivers lessons through various ways including online television radio and printed materials. Over 20 million students from kindergarten to high school nationwide have signed up for the new school year. Colleges and universities are also shifting to distance learning affecting over 3 million students. The new system is drawing mixed reactions from students. Sittie Macunte: Matututo naman po kami kung focused kami sa ginagawa namin. Aaron Matsui: Mas Mabuti parin po talagang andiyan, nakatutok sa teacher. Reporter: Some youth groups are urging officials to defer the school opening noting that thousands of students lack access to the Internet. For some parents, distance learning seems impractical. They worry about having to spend more time and money on their children's education especially if students need to go online regularly. Rowena Matsui: Eh papano kung laging online yong anak ko? Mabigat para samin. In private schools, parents are demanding lower tuition fees since students will be studying from home but the schools say some recurring costs cannot be waived especially maintenance fees. Noel Estrada: Yung laboratories gymnation, lahat po yan na facility, kailangan paring i-maintain. Reporter: Education officials have come up with web-based platforms where stakeholders can share learning materials. Kinder to high school students are using DepEd Commons, the online learning that can be accessed free of data charges through a partnership between the DepEd and Telcos. The Commission on Higher Education meantime is developing the Phil connect website it contains text audio video and other digital content that can be used for teaching and research. Prospero De Vera: No ifs no buts learning must continue. We learn as one.We are ready. For teachers distance learning means making the extra effort to reach students. Jenny Yabut: Yon pong modules ay libreng ipapamahagi, kung kailangan naming silang punatahan sa mga bahay nila ay gagawin po namin. They have to create more educational content. These should contain essential lessons at the same time, they need to be simple enough for students to adjust on their own. Shirley Buenrostro: Hindi kahanda ang ating mga teacher sa pagbabagong ito but as a teacher kailangan nating ma adopt. Is this distance learning going to be effective? For education officials trying to make it work is better than doing nothing. Lisa Nichols CNN Philippines Page 6 of 6
