Misinformation, measures and facts during a global health crisis

As the world grapples with the novel coronavirus outbreak, we continue to follow-up on stories and facts related to the epidemic. In this week's Checklist, we take a look at censorship of COVID-19 content and misinformation around the number of people that have tested positive for the epidemic. We question the role played by state authorities in reporting facts and information about the epidemic. We're sad that our friends have had to call off or postpone media conferences and events being held in March-April this year because of the spread of COVID-19. We see this as a loss for the entire community; however, we support the decision to suspend the events, given the volatility of the present health situation.
