Emerging story
Several Arabic websites and social media accounts are claiming that CNN has reported that Jordan has the best health and crisis management system in the world.
Posts and news articles also claim that a British MP and an Italian anchor have praised Jordan's performance and precautions in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, saying it was the best country to control the pandemic.
Misbar’s Analysis
Misbar reviewed the CNN broadcasts and reports on its website in previous weeks, specifically those related to Jordan, and did not find any report mentioning the Jordanian health system.
CNN did recently publish a piece about Jordan and healthcare, but it was a story about a Jordanian doctor describing his experience during 12 days of non-stop working at a hospital.
