Here's How To Use WhatsApp's New COVID-19 Fact-Checking Chatbot

WhatsApp has launched a new chatbot to curb the spread of COVID-19 misinformation on its platform. It connects people with independent fact-checkers in more than 70 countries and also with the largest database of debunked falsehoods related to the Coronavirus. By using this chatbot, you can easily check whether a piece of content about COVID-19 has already been rated as false by professional fact-checkers. It also serves as a way to direct people to their local fact-checkers' websites.
