SUMMARY:Misinformation in times of the pandemic
DESCRIPTION:Room 109\, Building 9\, St Eloi campus\n\nMachine Learning in M
 ontpellier\, Theory &amp\; Practice\n\nMessages posted on Twitter reveal t
 hat many individuals believe COVID is a hoax: either that the virus does n
 ot exist\, is transmitted through 5G towers or is a bioweapon. Insights in
 to how these pieces of information affect risk attitudes\, behaviours and\
 , hence\, health outcomes help in designing credible policy aimed at conta
 ining the pandemic. However\, identifying impact of misinformation on heal

 influences the prevalence of misinformation. The goal of this project is t
 o develop strategies to identify and follow arguments related to misinform
 ation with the view of understanding how can COVID-related misinformation 
 can be combatted.\n\nMachine Learning in Montpellier\, Theory &amp\; Pract
