Over the weekend, a certain European group showed the world which countries as Brazil and the United States are not alone in terms of their lack of awareness regarding Covid-19 pandemic. We wish we didn't have to report another big agglomeration in the context in which we live, but that was the fact. On Saturday (August 1, 2020), several Germans took to the streets to protest (guess what!) against the protective measures imposed by the chancellor Angela Merkel and other government officials in the country. The demonstration brought together groups anti-vaccine and neo-Nazis. They claim that Covid-19 would be a “grand theory of the conspiracy.” The protest slogan was the culmination of the protest. According to the organizers, the phrase “freedom day” was inspired by a 1935 film about the Nazi army. Of course, all the movement would be used to support new fake news. AND there was no other. In the last few hours, a story related to the demonstrations in Germany went viral on social media. According to publications, more than 1 million people would have taken to the streets, in Berlin (Germany), to fight against the “pandemic hoax”. According to the texts being shared, the Germans would be right to fight against estrangement and the mandatory use of a mask. Check it out: Version 1: _“The media tries to underestimate the number of protesters, but friends in Berlin tells me that 1 million people say “NO to quarantine”, masks and dictatorial restrictions of Covid-19.”_ Version 2:_“More than 1.2 million people in Berlin this August 1st, without social distance or the muzzle of the “New Abnormality”. An awakened people who demonstrate against the attempt to subdue him.”_ Version 3:_“Demonstration in Berlin 1.3 million against the PANDEMIC discretionary use of MASKS and SLAVERY. 1st world country.”_ ## More than 1 million people participated in a protest denouncing “pandemic fake” in Berlin? Given the situation we are facing, it is clear that the story went viral on social media. and served as a basis for people who already believed that pandemic would be a hoax. But does this story that more than 1 million of Germans participated in a protest in Berlin to denounce the “farce of “pandemic” is real? It is not! Let's get to the facts! Just take a look at the publications to see some mistakes. They are vague, alarmist in nature, have Portuguese errors and do not cite reliable sources. As we have shown previously, it is a fact that the protest took place on Saturday (day August 1, 2020), in Berlin, Germany. It is also a fact that the manifestation happened frivolously and was based on false premises (and also “inspired” by Nazi ideas). We won't dwell on this, but The recommendation of the World Health Organization (WHO) is that everyone use mask and practice social distancing. The new guidance from the highest body of health was released at the beginning of June 2020 and is based on studies scientific studies related to the subject. Regarding the Covid-19 pandemic being a farce, the numbers speak for themselves. There are already almost 700,000 deaths worldwide whole. Well, to clarify this story once and for all, we decided to look for more information in German newspapers. The newspaper Die Welt highlighted that, according to According to police estimates, around 17 thousand people participated in the demonstration and, later, around 20 thousand participated in a rally after the end of the protest. The newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) highlighted that the Event organizers reported the number of participants several times in the protest. To applause, the organizers reported the presence of 1.3 million people at the demonstration. According to the Berlin police, this number it was much smaller, around 20 thousand people. In addition to the number of participants being wrong, some of the photos used in the Brazilian publications are also not part of the protest on August 1st, 2020. The photo that shows the protest on the street, surrounded by trees, in a wider angle, in fact, was recorded over the weekend. The photo shows several blank spaces in the manifestation. The image that shows the manifestation from a more closed angle, where you can observing bus stops and several people on the street, was also done in demonstration on August 1, 2020. In this image, you can also see blanks. The closed-angle photo shows hundreds of people holding signs It's not recent. She was recorded on June 6, 2020 at a protest anti-racism in Germany. Meanwhile, the photo that shows thousands of people on a bridge over a canal does not even show a demonstration, much less was it registered in Germany. The image, in reality, shows the “Street Parade” (a of the biggest electronic parties in the world), held annually in Zurich, in Switzerland. In short: the story that says that more than 1 million people participated in a protest against the “pandemic hoax” in Berlin (Germany) is fake! To the publications use photos that are not from the protest on August 1, 2020. One of them even shows an electronic music party in Zurich, in Switzerland. Furthermore, the number of protest participants was much lower as indicated by today's story. According to Berlin police and newspapers locals, around 17 thousand people participated in the protest and 20 thousand participated of a rally held after the demonstration. In other words, the story is nothing more than bullshit. Don't share! Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
