Misinformation thrives in stressful times. I know we all want to share news right now but when you feel the urge to share something on your feed consider asking:

* Who posted this? Are they a reporter, or do they have what looks like a reliable source?
* Have you heard of this news site before?
* Where is this photo from? Did they take it? Could it be something other than what the poster claims? Is there a way you can tell if it is what it says it is?
