Hi again, I’m feeling torn, don’t mean to spam but I really want to share it: the german government hosts a hackathon, targeting Covid-19. It’s all in German though, but some of you might feel inspired or you guys want to check with your countries. https://wirvsvirushackathon.org/?fbclid=IwAR1ufbZyvDQIhwO_3TQ8tJ-Iq-R8es-JPf...

The TV dataset has all mentions on 11 stations, while the web dataset has the first mention in around 1.1 million online articles (English now but expanding shortly).

It occurred to me that a short list of resources for people to read and/or share might be useful at this time. I wondered if list members could suggest short, easily digestible, public-facing resources that provide useful guidance on the sharing/consumption of misinformation or unverified health advice on social media and other channels (e.g. WhatsApp). In addition, similarly short/digestible resources or other advice around the self-care implications of consuming rolling coverage of the outbreak may well be useful. I’d be happy to collaborate with others on pulling the eventual list of resources together, should any of you be interested in doing that. Kind regards, and I hope you are all staying safe.
