Misinformation about the coronavirus is spreading faster than the virus itself and law enforcement authorities want you know about the surge in myths, hoaxes and scams.

According to the Homeland Security Bureau in Southeast Florida Fusion Center, there is an influx of scams and hoaxes on social media and the misinformation is constantly shared and forwarded with little to no vetting.

Currently, one of the top “warning” hoaxes involves “groups of people in white lab coats offering door to door COVID-19 testing with the intention of robbing you.”

As of Friday, March 20, 2020, neither the Southeast Florida Fusion Center nor the Miami-Dade Police Department have received any report of this type of activity.

I've heard that Chloroquine-by-mail scams have already started.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
