New Delhi (NVI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi today shared a link to the government’s Whatsapp MyGov Corona Help Desk, which has been set up to check misinformation about coronavirus.
“Sharing correct information, avoiding incorrect panic. Here is an effort by WhatsApp and government to ensure you receive accurate and verified information on Coronavirus,” PM Modi tweeted.
In a series of tweets, he also praised Twitter and Google for taking their initiative to curb fake news and spread awareness about coronavirus and its related updates among the people.
Twitter India launched a dedicated COVID-19 page where it shows all the tweets about Coronavirus from the Indian authorities.
While Google has initiated a new campaign called “Do the Five”, which suggests people should wash hands often, use elbow while coughing, keep a safe distance from other people, should not touch face and stay at home if possible.
