Abstract

The whole world is facing the unknown and the unexpected as COVID-19 has been changing how we live our lives and how (or whether) we go to work. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. No one could have ever imagined we would be confronting such an unusual situation as we are now. Definitions such as lockdown, quarantine, social isolation, that had only been seen in movies and games, are now part of our daily lives and widely discussed among recently born internet graduated “experts”. The enormous amount of information spread in all kinds of media makes it hard, even for professionals, to distinguish myth from truth. Even renowned sources have spread misleading information, for which apologies have been made.
