CV18. Narrative, Social Reality: Rumour and Social Stigma as Barriers to the Prevention of Coronavirus Disease (Covid-19): What Solutions to Consider. Rumours and social stigma are believed to be two possible barriers to the effective prevention of the disease. Despite measures taken, rumours and social stigma related to COVID-19 tend to increase globally. Several studies document that rumours and social stigma may fuel the risk and rapid spread of COVID-19. However, how these rumours and social stigma act as barriers to the prevention of the COVID-19 outbreak remain unclear.

Note that stigma began to be reported early in the CV parademic. Stigmas pre exist pandemics, but pandemics allowing the opportunity to vent such beliefs. Like all forms of othering stigma is a social illness that has outbreaks, sometimes growing into genocides.
-B. MORE: Christian Pastor Says World Will Be a “Better Place” after Covid Vaccine Causes Genocide (Gender). The Folly of Immunological Determinism. Amid the 1st global pandemic of our lifetime – incorrect, CV was just the worse so far, though article does list the previous ones that are now considered epidemics even if they were global infections – it is worth reflecting on past massive disease outbreaks and whether there are lessons to be learned from prior human suffering and its interpretations to mitigate the extent of pathogenic threats in the future. Across history, diseases have ravaged human populations time and again (Figure 1). One of the greatest episodes of devastation and depopulation was set off by the European conquest and colonialization of the Western Hemisphere during the 16th and 17th centuries, but the telling and understanding of this dark story needs to be reconceived. | The present popular account is deeply entrenched: Following contact with Europeans, indigenous Native American communities were decimated by rampaging diseases from AfroEurasia, leading to population losses, which opened the way for rapid European conquest and spread. Overall, scholars estimate that the arrival of Europeans led to a sharp decline of as much as 95 percent of indigenous populations throughout the Americas. The agent for this demographic decimation is almost unanimously pinned as disease with the colonists basically portrayed as innocent bystanders. |Since the 1960s, anthropologists and historians have attributed the devastation of colonial era indigenous communities to the “Virgin Soil” theory popularized in the writings of Crosby(1976) and McNeill (1976) (and later adopted by Diamond [1997] and Mann [2005]). The core premise is that indigenous peoples of the Americas were so susceptible to the pathogens brought by Europeans because they had no prior contact with them, or the domestic animals that they tended, and so were “immunologically defenseless”. Before contact, indigenous peoples were untainted by the microorganisms to which Europeans had been exposed for hundreds or thousands of years, and hence were “doomed to die” after contact. My own speculation is that it was not the diseases themselves but cultural practices, i.e. parademic. For example continued warfare using the sickness to infect enemies, not having a practice of quarantine as done in the Old World, “medical” practices as ineffective as the colonizers and could spread disease, transmission along trade networks or trying to escape a disease, and other practices that rapidly spread an outbreak within a band/ tribe/ community such as better sanitation methods than the colonizers which inadvertently exposed more people.

The second set of sceptics are notoriously unmoved by science: these are the antivaxxer groups. The third reluctant group comprises people motivated by animal welfare and environmental concerns, 200930-CV21.
