Friend,

People are still spreading false information about vaccines and masks, that could affect choices we all make about our health as lockdown eases. Can you help?
Yes, I’ll give £7.56 a month ([link removed])
I'll give another amount ([link removed])

This week, my colleagues fact checked a video of a woman who claims to be an attorney, making various false claims about the coronavirus–including that asymptomatic carriers of Covid do not spread disease, and that face masks can cause low levels of oxygen in the body.

Posts like this are made to look credible and get a lot of shares online, influencing more and more people's choices about their health.

Thanks to the help of our readers, we’ve been able to scrutinise hundreds of false claims about the coronavirus, and provide millions of people across the UK with accurate information over the last year.

But with lockdown easing for many of us, and coronavirus cases rising, we all face important choices that will depend on good information.

Monthly supporters, who give an average of £7.56 every month, are our best guarantee as independent fact checkers that people won't get caught out by false posts like this.

Can you join them, and help people stay safe and protected over the coming months?
Yes, I'll start a regular donation ([link removed])
I'll give another amount ([link removed])
We're so grateful to have you standing with us.
