Description:
People going through trauma are more vulnerable to misinformation. First coined by the World Health Organization, COVID19 has sparked a widespread infodemic. This talk will examine examples of disinformation campaigns. We'll look at ways that sock puppets target, scrape, at spread misinformation on COVID. Finally, we'll look at some examples of how disinformation has caused harm and loss of life for vulnerable populations.
