&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;#39;Social media (84.94%) produces the largest amount of misinformation, and the internet (90.5%) as a whole is responsible for most of the COVID-19 misinformation. Moreover, Facebook alone produces 66.87% of the misinformation among all social media platforms.&amp;#39;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;India produced the largest amount of social media misinformation on COVID-19 due to the country&amp;#39;s higher internet penetration rate, increasing social media consumption and users&amp;#39; lack of internet literacy, according to a &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.08.21256879v1.full-text&quot;&gt;new study&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The study, titled &amp;#39;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.08.21256879v1.full-text&quot;&gt;Prevalence and Source Analysis&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.08.21256879v1.full-text&quot;&gt;of COVID-19 Misinformation in 138 Countries&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#39;, was published in Sage&amp;#39;s International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions journal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The study analysed 9,657 pieces of misinformation that originated in 138 countries. They were fact-checked by 94 organisations to understand the prevalence and sources of misinformation in different countries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Of all the countries, India (18.07%) produced the largest amount of social media misinformation, perhaps thanks to the country&amp;#39;s higher internet penetration rate, increasing social media consumption and users&amp;#39; lack of internet literacy,&amp;quot; the study said.&lt;/p&gt;
