WHO provide a helpful guide on how to report misinformation online
Inaccurate information spreads widely and at speed,
making it more difficult for the public to identify verified facts and advice from trusted sources, such as their local health authority or WHO.
As a starting point in the UK, only NHS organisations are being invited to self-certify against the NHS Standard for Creating Health Content.
By completing the self-certification process, an NHS organisation channel will be eligible for information panels indicating NHS credibility.

It was expected that Newspeak would have finally superseded Oldspeak (or Standard English, as we should call it) by about the year 2050
The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world-view and mental habits proper to the devotees of Ingsoc, but to make all other modes of thought impossible.
The C vocabulary was supplementary to the others and consisted entirely of scientific and technical terms. These resembled the scientific terms in use today, and were constructed from the same roots, but the usual care was taken to define them rigidly and strip them of undesirable meanings.
