When the world is fighting the deadly virus that’s been claiming lives every day, there are disturbing visuals that have been going viral with real deaths, large crowds amid social distancing requests, ignorant public on roads during curfew, nurses with scars formed due to mask impressions.
Those were all real and the made sense, but there is something else that is triggering unwanted panic among the social media users and that needs to be stopped voluntarily. The fake pictures on Whatsapp forwards are misleading the users o the most and imprinting the thoughts and views that are miles away from existence and that never ever happened.
Here are some of those WhatsApp forwards, that many people believe them to be true and putting them forward on other groups they are part of. Some of them are, the Italian president’s weeping picture for which there is no existing proof or video, an aerial picture showing tens of people lying dead on the ground while others are just passing by as the scene is usual now and finally, the report claiming to be from NASA’s satellites that have found the coronavirus retreating in India due to the cosmic level sound waves generated when all our fellow Indians clapped at 5 PM yesterday.
These WhatsApp fake forwards are joining the useful genuine informative forwards and are claiming the official statuses amid the panic situations, but for which they need to be deleted at once. The people who have been spamming all the timelines and WhatsApp groups need to rethink on what they are sharing, instead of pushing them to all with what they get on their phones.
