Is fake news a serious problem in the contemporary word?

I think fake news are huge problem now a days. Most of people read or watch news on which they are building their opinion and outlook, but not all informations are true. There are a lot of fake news in the Internet, for example shocking articles about someone famous. We can't belive in it, because they are written by someone who probably is fantasists and his words aren't reliable. To avoid sharing fake news we have to check reliable sources and not sharing it before checking.
Fake news can be very dangerous and when we start to belive them, we can't recognize which are true and which ones aren't.

    So we should train ourselves in recognising and fact-checking fake news.
    Remember: NEWS is always singular so NEWS IS.

Underwater pyramid in the Azores

Obraz
  At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, a large pyramid-shape was found. The top of the pyramid is 40 meters deep and 60 meters high and covers an area of ​​8,000 m2. The underwater pyramid was discovered by a local angler in September this year during one of his trips. This angler claims that the pyramid must have been built with human hands and it may be the mythical Atlantis. However, not everyone is convinced that the find from the Azores is a pyramid. Skeptics that there is a chance that this is just an underwater volcanic hill, not a residual Atlantean civilization. (it’s because Azores are archipelago of nine volcanic islands and that’s why people are not convinced about the theory of underwater city)    https://curiosmos.com/is-there-a-20000-year-old-underwater-pyramid-in-the-atlantic-ocean/

Observation 6

 I’ve read an article about domestic violence. The text talked about the maltreatment of man against women and the passivity of the police. It sounds pretty horryfing. Maybe the number of women who were murdered because of their partners is not high, but why is it not dropping? Why the police is doing literally nothing event they have evidence of violence? Also a creepy fact is that the punishments for doing such a thing are really mild and most of the perpetrators do not even receive them. The article mentions a woman who was killed by her husband while sleeping. Before that situation the neighbors dialled for help but the police did nothing and it was the main reason why that woman died. Because of ignorance and passivity. What else we can do when even someone like police officers do not care about our safety? Maybe not to have any relationships or carry a knife whenever we are surrounded by other people? It sounds ridiculous but I have no better idea how to be safe on our own

Soap and viruses- Is social distancing that we all have to practise now is difficult or easy for you?

For me social distancing is a little bit difficult, because I don't have any kind of physical contact with somebody in my age. Of course staying at home for over a dozen days was really great, but when the prohibitions appeared that we can't go out and meet friends, it became harder. Videochats and online lessons it's not the same as face to face meeting. Although we recently had an Easter, and we couldn't go to our families, because of this virus. That's why for me and for most people staying at home is very hard.
