Building immunity to disinformation
Tbilisi. The EU Delegation in Georgia devotes an extensive article to the misinformation surrounding the vaccination against COVID-19.
“Vaccinations are one of the greatest successes in public health. We read about diseases like smallpox in history books, rather than news websites, precisely because of vaccines, which helped to eradicate them. However, since the beginning of the pandemic there has been a huge volume of misleading information and blatant conspiracy theories about vaccines. In fact, the “vaccine scare” has been present in the undergrowth of information space for quite some time, successfully exploited by disinformation actors, state and non-state”, - We read in the article, - “Just like vaccines can provide immunity to viruses, including COVID-19, we can build immunity to disinformation”.
