It analyzes publicly available posts from Twitter to spot misinformation aka ‘fake news’ and the use of automation a.k.a. ‘bots’. The information on this this dashboard is based on an automated real-time analysis of a large sample of English tweets containing  keywords “Coronavirus” or “COVID”, as provided by Twitter’s Streaming API.
