- Conspiracy myths in times of Corona
Conspiracy myths are enjoying renewed popularity in times of corona crises. Finally, the aim is to identify the reasons and causes of the crisis and possibly find culprits. Can corona be coincidence? Do we really have to consider the complex and differentiated answers of virologists and scientists or can we look for quick explanations and culprits? Has Covid-19 escaped from a laboratory after all? Those who believe in conspiracy myths leave little doubt.
