Let us identify these terms.

“Fake news”: “in essence, a two-dimensional phenomenon of public communication: there is

the (1) fake news genre, describing the deliberate creation of pseudo ( not genuine) journalistic
disinformation, and there is the (2) fake news label, describing the political instrumentalization
of the term to delegitimize (destroy legitimacy) news media.” (fake news is a news or stories
created to deliberately misinform or deceive readers. From inaccurate report that is created to
gain attention or to damage a reputation)
proliferation: a rapid and often excessive spread or increase
immunity: a condition of being able to resist a particular disease; being unaffected by
something
hoax: an act intended to trick or deceive
rumor: a story or statement in general circulation without confirmation or certainty as to facts;
gossip or hearsay
pandemic: “the worldwide spread of a new disease” (as defined by WHO)
outbreak: a time when something suddenly begins, especially a disease or something else
dangerous or unpleasant
polarization (political): a sharp division, as of a population or group, into opposing factions
(group of people disagree about something)

Teacher: In what ways are “fake news” and the coronavirus similar? (Ask students)

It is obvious what makes “fake news” and the coronavirus somewhat similar: both spread
quickly and widely. While they do not exactly spread the same way (i.e. “fake news” typically
gets spread through social media (sa mga nakikita natin, isang like isang share lalo kapag
nakapublic post ss screen record share) while the coronavirus gets transmitted from person to
person through close contact (and kapag na expose ka sa taong courier ng virus), in our present
day, the spread of both “fake news” and the coronavirus results in big problems for everyone.

What’s even worse is when it’s “fake news” about coronavirus that spreads and infects
thousands of people. ( mas worst ay kapag yung kumakalat ng news ay about sa mga false
information about covid 19, katulad nung kakaumpisa palang ng lock down right madaming
lumalabas na mga fake news kung paano nga ba ito nakakahawa) (Kindly give examples of fake
news or post, articles na naencounter niyo sa social media)
(thank you for your answers)

Moving forward, we should be able to identify “fake news”. Much like COVID-19, to defeat
“fake news” means to prevent oneself from being infected by it. We are always reminded to
put face masks on, observe physical distancing, disinfect our surroundings, and keep ourselves
fit and healthy. (katulad kung paano tayo umiwas na mahawaan ng covid maari rin tayong
gumawa ng paraan para makaiwas sa fake news)

The Box has created a 4-step strategy to avoid and protect oneself from it and we call it
#IWASFAKE:

The closest thing we can get to a vaccine for “fake news” is increasing our immunity against it.
And so, practicing these four steps will go a long way in our fight against “fake news”. But
before you learn about each of these steps, it is crucial that you first know the enemy and know
it very well.
LESSON 2 | What is the ‘Infodemic’ and what makes it a big problem?

“Fake news” about COVID-19 may be even more dangerous than COVID-19 itself. Why?
Because the spread of false and inaccurate information about a highly contagious disease entails
higher chances of misinformed people getting infected by it. (Fake news about covid 19, unang
lock down 2019) (ano yung unang reaction niyo nung nalaman niyo na maglolock down)

The World Health Organization (WHO) coined the term Infodemic, a combination of the words
“information” and “pandemic” to describe our current world situation characterized by “an over-
abundance of information – some accurate and some not – that makes it hard for people to find
trustworthy sources and reliable guidance when they need it.”

What is “fake news” and how did it all begin? (paano nga ba nagumpisa ang fake news

The rise of “fake news” can be traced to the year 2016 when the United States and the
Philippines both held their presidential elections.

Hoaxes, rumors, false and misleading content ( mga fake articles na pinagmukang totoo)
dressed up to look like news articles about political candidates spread like wildfire on social
media. This easily became one of the most discussed phenomena in the aftermath of the
elections.

(may mga nakikita tayong fake news nap eke pero pinapalabas na mukang totoo katulad ngayon
na election period marami nanaamang naglalabasan na fake news mayroong edited video na
obvioius na nacut , may mga taong madaling maniwala pero mayroon ding marunong suriin,
kung totoo ba yung news nay un.
Ditto na rin naglalabasan ang mga troll accounts or dummy account para mas isspread pa ang
fake or midleading news.

Four Themes of COVID-19 “Fake News”

Today, we are going to look at some of the most common COVID- related “fake news” that are
categorized into four main themes according to First Draft, the leading nonprofit organization
conducting research on misinformation and disinformation.

1. WHERE IT CAME FROM

“Fake news” thrive in a situation where verified facts are lacking. Since we are naturally curious,
we always try to fill in the gaps of our knowledge. We tend to make sense of every new piece of
information we encounter based on what we already know.

When news came out about this new strain of coronavirus in December, as reported by Chinese
authorities to the World Health Organization (WHO), theories about where it came from quickly
flooded social media. There are conspiracy theorists who claim that the coronavirus is a
bioweapon concocted by the Chinese government to target the United States.

(magbigay kyo ng examples kung saan nga ng aba ngmula ang covid 19)

1. Wuhan City in China

Explanation:
The Coronavirus or NCOV-19 came from Wuhan, China. The disease
appears to have originated from a Wuhan seafood market where they sell and
eat exotic wild animals, like birds, and bats.
(Gumagawa ng sakit para makapag produce sila ng gamot. Target America,
population.

2. HOW IT SPREADS

Many false claims about the coronavirus bank on our sense of fear and confusion. This is
especially true when it comes to information about how coronavirus spreads.
The WHO website has devoted a section to countering such false claims like the chances of
COVID-19 being spread on shoes and infecting individuals (Yes it can, but it is very low); the
transmission of COVID-19 through houseflies (No, there’s no evidence for it); and the
transmission through 5G mobile networks (No, virus cannot travel on radio waves and mobile
networks!).
(fake news about covid 19 transmission)
COVID-19 transmits when people breathe in air contaminated by droplets and small airborne
particles containing the virus. The risk of breathing these in is highest when people are in close
proximity, but they can be inhaled over longer distances, particularly indoors. Transmission can also
occur if splashed or sprayed with contaminated fluids in the eyes, nose or mouth, and, rarely, via
contaminated surfaces.

Delta (B. 1.617. 2) was first identified in India in late 2020; it soon spread throughout the
world, becoming what was the predominant version of the coronavirus—until Omicron took its
place in mid-December.

(variants like delta from india and omicron from south Africa)

3. SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENT

Bad advice about treatment and cures are the most common and widely spread “fake news”
about COVID-19, and it can have serious consequences. Not only does it prevent people from
getting the proper care they need, it can cost lives too. In Iran, 44 people died and hundreds were
hospitalized after drinking home-made alcohol to protect themselves from the disease. Every
day, new speculations about home treatments like drinking hot water mixed with salt, symptom
checks, and vaccines go viral online.

(Example of home remedies)

 Suob
 Iinom alcholic dink
 Vaccine – nagging joke magging zombie. Vaccine (micro chip)

4. HOW WE ARE RESPONDING

As most people try to observe stay-at-home protocols, many rely on social media to get updated
on how other people are doing. ( 1s From photos or videos that show people panic buying to
news about relief distribution or the transport situation, many of these are shared online without
verification. As the government introduces new measures, loads of misrepresented pictures and
rumors emerge. It is unfortunate to see an outbreak of political “fake news” in the midst of a
health crisis.
