Combating Coronavirus Misinformation: Hydroxychloroquine, Masks and More... | Amanpour and Company

Описание: The pandemic has brought with it an overwhelming raft of information -- and with the science changing so fast, it’s fertile ground for conspiracy theories. Dr F. Perry Wilson calls it a “perfect storm,” a global crisis trapped between the medical and political worlds. He is a world-renowned physician and clinical researcher at Yale University and is documenting his life working in a COVID-19 ward. He is also offering a free class through Coursera titled "Understanding Medical Research: Your Facebook Friend is Wrong," available here: https://www.coursera.org/learn/medica...

Originally aired on May 12, 2020.
