Information that TSN filmed a story about patients with Covid-19 near one of the hospitals in Kyiv

During the last day, fake information began to spread actively on the Facebook network that TSN filmed a story about patients with Covid-19 near one of the hospitals in Kyiv and, allegedly, paid money to the heroes of the story, who became "grandmothers for 50-60-65 and women under 45 years old".

TSN officially declares that this information is not true. For the evening news broadcast of TSN, which will be broadcast today at 7:30 p.m. on channel 1+1, the journalists did not conduct any filming in the city of Kyiv about patients with Covid-19. For the story about quarantine zoning, TSN filmed only in two cities — Lutsk and Ternopil. And in the evening issue of TSN from August 2, there was only one story about the coronavirus, for which archival footage was used: h ttps://youtu.be/GuH0mt-mRu E

In the photo, which the author of the post confirms, allegedly, the fact of filming the plot, there are no identifying marks that would indicate the TSN.

In addition, the TSN team once again emphasizes that it has never paid money to the heroes of the stories.

We urge Ukrainians not to spread fake information and to observe the rules of information hygiene, always checking the source of information.
