Facebook Is Responding Actively to The Outbreak of Novel Coronavirus – Mark Zuckerberg Explains the Initiatives in Detail
Rachel MNews, Social MediaMarch 4, 2020

Soon after the outbreak of novel coronavirus, the world seems to join hands for the preventions and precautions but a very few of them authenticates. As discussed in the previous post, a hoax of misinformation took over most social media platforms and Facebook tops the list. Being an addicted Facebook user, you must have seen a flood of posts talking about the symptoms, increasing rates, precautions and preventions of the Novel Coronavirus.

 

Keeping in view the corporate social responsibility, Facebook took some bold steps in the previous days and deleted a lot of such posts spreading misinformation about the virus. Apart from cleaning the newsfeed countering their regular practices, Facebook has also canceled the F8 Conference as a prevention from the spreading of coronavirus worldwide.

 

With all the right tactics, Mark Zuckerberg has further detailed his initiates towards this global crisis last evening. Facebook along with his family’s non-profit organization Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is all set with their agenda for protection against the corona-crises.

The primary Facebook agenda revolves around three mainstream requirements of the current situation i.e. the provision of authentic information, ceasing the spreading misinformation, and to provide significant data to the research agencies for authentic purposes. Well, Facebook does not perceive it as an offensive thing to gather public data and sell it aka contributing to researching. However, their agenda sounds like a great contribution to the global crises of the novel coronavirus.

 

For the provision of authentic information, Facebook is keenly directing each of its users towards the official awareness platforms by the World Health Organization and their local authorities via automated popups. Also, the official notification for each case of virus transmission is being directed to the users’ newsfeeds in the country where the case has been reported.

Zuckerberg mentions in his detailed announcement that they are in a close-knit with WHO and other relevant organizations like UNICEF, etc., for better communicating the awareness. They are facilitating the NGOs free of cost advertisement and promotion of authentic information via Facebook.

To cease the spread of misinformation, Facebook is already removing the false posting and campaigns along with reporting and blocking the authorities. Mark Zuckerberg mentions in his announcement that the company is removing as well as blocking people or organizations trying to exploit the fear among people and create hoax among people by posting cures of coronavirus with fish and snake oils.

 

The most important part of Facebook’s agenda – to utilize its services in rightly managing the crises and contributing to the control of this outbreak. Mark Zuckerberg has announced to provide important data and insights to the research agencies willing to carry out studies concerning the global crises of the novel coronavirus.

Ending the detailed announcement, Zuckerberg says that a lot more can be done concerning the protection against novel coronavirus around the world. Currently, Facebook is just focusing on the primary goal of controlling the outbreak by determining how it transmits and the spreading of misinformation that creates hoax among the people. But they are planning to come up with more initiatives and plans in a few weeks.
