Often for quick super simple and "readily accepted facts" that does end up being true.

However, it's also quite often, particularly in new territory such as the virus, that people simply don't know how to properly research, check their sources, the validity or credibility of the data, cross referencing it, etc etc... or they don't have enough background information for a certain essay or group of essays to provide them enough data to formulate their own unique ideas and truly understand it.
Just stop. You don't know what you are talking about. People are dying and you aren't helping.
