【Staff Engagement】Professor Wei Ran Compiled Archive of COVID Misinformation

Compiled by a team led by NA-affiliated Professor Wei Ran, Professor, School of Journalism and Communication over the past three years, an archive of COVID misinformation has recently been launched to give snapshots of bogus news items that once captured people’s imagination, and inform researchers in the field.

The archive forms an integral part of a Collaborative Research Fund project and is by far the largest Chinese pandemic misinformation database. Working like a Google search engine, it allows one to search pandemic-related Weibo posts from January 2020 through February 2022.
