Fact Check Stories Index (in Tamil Translation):

Story 1:

Claim: An American now dies of COVID-19 every 40 seconds

Fact: As per an article by Reuters this information is partially true. However, we need to consider that the reference made in the article is for that particular day. The article said, “The death toll reached 2,157 on Tuesday - one person every 40 seconds - with another 170,000 people infected, numbers that experts say could grow with millions of Americans defying official warnings and travelling for Thursday’s Thanksgiving holiday”.

Story 2:

The information came for fact-checking that a hospital in Coimbatore is advertising about post covid care rehabilitation. The pamphlet claims to ‘UNDO covid damage’.

We found that while several hospitals in India are giving post covid care, no evidence has been found about the permanent effect of covid-19 and the research is still on-going. Meanwhile, there is also no scientific evidence to claim that any side-effects due to covid-19 can be UNDONE.

Story 3:

Claim: As many as 20,000 Nihang Sikhs along with 2000 horses on their way to support farmers in Delhi. The lions of Punjab stand in solidarity with their farmer brothers'.

Fact: False, the video is from November 2018 in Delhi and is not related with the on-going farmer protest. See the original video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiFX9kBGnmU&feature=emb_title
