Whether it’s false cures or conspiracy theories, disinformation is going viral – so much so, that the United Nations says we’re fighting two enemies: the scourge of COVID-19 and an “infodemic.” Who’s behind the spread of fake news about coronavirus and who can stop it?

Our guests: sociologist Jen Schradie, German politician Franziska Brantner (Green Party) and European parliamentarian Sandro Gozi (Liste Renaissance)
