There is insufficient evidence to prove that the extremist jihadis are circulating COVID-19 contaminated paper currency notes into society.

There is insufficient evidence to prove that the extremist jihadis are circulating COVID-19 contaminated paper currency notes into society.Weekly Bitz reports that COVID-19 infected Muslims in India are spreading the virus through licking currency notes as well by wiping nose on it. COVID-19 contaminated currency notes are being circulated into several Western nations as well as Israel. Pakistani spy agency Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI) has been smuggling out COVID-19 contaminated currency notes into India through several cross-border smuggling rackets.

A YouTube video showed a Muslim man taking a bunch of currency notes to wipe his nose and mouth. He says that the COVID-19 has no treatment because it is sent by ‘Allah’, suggesting that he is going to pass those currency notes around, to spread the disease.

However, there were no credible sources to prove that Jihadis have been spreading coronavirus through currency notes.

The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to a lot of potentially dangerous misinformation. For reliable advice on COVID-19 including symptoms, prevention and available treatment, please refer to the World Health Organisation or your national healthcare authority.
