This is going to be a thread on choosing media sources - especially when reading about research.

I started seeing versions of this in my timeline, so I commented on a few of the tweets.

Here is the original article, which appears in the Daily Mail.

The 1st thing I did was to search 'Boston University makes covid strain', I wanted to see what media outlets were amplifying the story.

Top 10 results were alt-right publications. Epoch Times, Sputnik (RU state linked) & Post Millennial.
