The COVID-19 pandemic is a brand-new topic for all. Millions of people are very interested in it, because it affects all of us. Therefore, it wasn’t difficult to increase page views.

Some media took advantage of this opportunity to release some scary, unconfirmed news. That essentially equals viral transmission. Only by being a reliable source can those newly-added users during the epidemic be kept.

The pandemic should not be explained and information spread from the perspective of race by the media. The photos and videos used in news related to the disease are very important, but they must be used in a responsible way to avoid unnecessary panic. The media should check the source of the information and only provide confirmed information.
