This appeared in my twitter feed and I think it is fake news There is no byline and no It may also be a kind of anti-England or anti-monarchy propaganda, too. The website looks sketchy and no other sources confirm it. People who spread fake news are using propaganda techniques for economic or political purposes and in doing so, they harm the public trust.

    Saying the the Queen has Corona is extremely awful if she does not. This can cause so much confusion and it also makes it seem like Corona is a joke to the person. We should not be saying that someone has Corona if they do not this is such a confusing time for everyone and people should not be causing worry for nothing.

    The amount of false information spreading about this disease is alarming. Everything from ways to avoid it to number of deaths, even which famous people have tested positive for it. I think in a time of such high stress, people are more likely to believe anything. This propaganda could definitely have political purposes, it is also presenting a topic that they know people are going to click on.

    This piece of media seems to have all of the red flags that can be shown that hint at misinformation. Sadly, many people may view it to be true if others are sharing it. The Queen is a beloved figure all over the world and such misinformation can (as the description explains) harm public trust.

    I have a hard time believing that this isn't a purposeful lie in order to gain attention. I think that its fair to say that there is no journalism being done here, purely a shocking title designed to gather clicks. It is possible that this is supposed to be a joke in a way with the prevalence of "the queen is immortal" jokes and memes that are spreading around the internet, but even if that's where this comes from then it isn't very funny and still quite harmful to those not "in on the meme".
