At some point during the coronavirus pandemic, Italy was considered the epicenter of the disease. The situation, which was catastrophic in March, begins to worsen stabilize. In the midst of this, an accusation related to Globo and the European country started circulating on the internet. Posts on social networks show that Globo used images of coffins of the tragedy of Lampedusa (shipwreck that killed 368 immigrants who were trying to arrive in Europe in 2013) as if they died from coronavirus in Bergamo (region most affected by the disease in the country) in 2020.

This is because she has some of the main characteristics of online rumors such as being vague, alarmist, with Portuguese errors and lack of citation of reliable sources. Furthermore, Accusatory rumors against the media in general have been common on the internet. With these characteristics and history, we decided to look for more details on respect of the subject. It didn't take long to discover that, in addition to the broadcaster did not use such an image, Globo, through Fato or Fake, refuted false information that indicated that the image of the coffins in question were linked to the coronavirus. It is worth pointing out that Boatos.org also made the denial in question in the month of March of this year and, at the time, we found no record that the images would have been attributed to the coronavirus pandemic by the TV station. Only posts on social networks were “creating confusion”. In short: the story that points out that TV Globo used images of the shipwreck Lampedusa in 2013 to illustrate the Covid-19 pandemic in Bergamo is false. No It's just another rumor about the subject circulating on the internet. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
