Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation. This report is the product of an AI model that is significantly less biased than human analyses and has been explicitly instructed to strictly maintain 100% neutrality.

Nevertheless, HonestyMeter is in the experimental stage and is continuously improving through user feedback. If the report seems inaccurate, we encourage you to submit feedback , helping us enhance the accuracy and reliability of HonestyMeter and contributing to media transparency.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Sensationalism

Using language that exaggerates the issue to attract attention.

Phrases like 'reservoir for a multitude of bugs' and 'inevitable consequential spread' are sensational and could cause unnecessary alarm.

Use more neutral language such as 'common carriers of viruses' and 'likely spread'.

Unsubstantiated claims

Making claims without providing sufficient evidence or data.

The article mentions that 'more than 85 per cent of the participants had at least one virus detected' without specifying the study details or providing a source.

Include references to the study or provide more detailed data to support the claims.
