CoronaCheck: Computational Fact Checking for Statistical Coronavirus Claims


Verify statistical claims about the coronavirus spread and effects on data from the official sources.



Here are some examples:

There are 50 new cases in China.

The total number of confirmed cases remained constant.

The death rate in US is higher than in Germany.


CoronaCheck is a joint effort from the teams of Prof. Papotti at EURECOM and of Prof. Trummer at Cornell University. We automatically verify statistical claims with official data to fight misinformation about the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak. A technical paper describes the approach that enables the automatic verification (pdf) (bib) (video). A RESTful API is also available, contact us to get a key.
