DISINFO: The UK copes with the “pandemic” better than Poland

SUMMARY

Regardless of someone’s attitude to the pandemic (or the “pandemic”), it is impossible not to notice that the UK copes with it better than Poland.

RESPONSE

Part of a wide and orchestrated pro-Kremlin media disinformation campaign about the coronavirus pandemic added with well-known criticism of Poland.

The reference to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic as “pandemic” (in quotes) is an attempt to deny the fact that the world has been facing the massive spread of the COVID-19, which has extremely negative health effects on the global population. The denial of the COVID-19 pandemic or undermining its negative consequences is a conspiracy theory, which goes against all available facts.

The claim that the UK copes with the pandemic significantly better than Poland is ambiguous and is hard to objectively evaluate in the context of the fast-changing epidemiological situation around the globe in the past few weeks. The main scope of claims like this is to undermine the ability of the EU Member States, and the EU itself, to cope with the pandemic.

Read other similar disinformation messages such as There is no Coronavirus pandemic, it’s fake; COVID-19 pandemic is artificially created and The pandemic is an operation to forward the interests of the global elites.
