Amid global concerns about the outbreak of the Corona virus (Covid 19), social media platforms have turned into a way to raise awareness of the dangers of the Corona virus, and address many of the practices and misinformation that has spread during the recent period, and these platforms have turned into a space for virtual meetings of global health authorities and celebrities to raise awareness.

The “Take Talk” platform, the mobile short video clips platform, has taken measures to provide community support by providing access to accurate information about this virus, in partnership with reliable health organizations, and supporting users around the world in positive and beneficial ways by launching various initiatives within the application.

Many entities, including the World Health Organization and UNICEF, use the Tik Tok platform to share helpful content and highlight ways to prevent infection. Meanwhile, many content makers on Tik Tok play an important role by sharing their health and safety advice.

UNICEF in the Middle East and North Africa (@unicefmena) began this March 28 broadcasting a talk about the "Covid 19" virus through "Tik Tok", providing advice to users on how to respond to the virus, the procedures they must follow to protect themselves and their children, and to combat common misconceptions. And the live broadcast got 230 thousand views, while the simultaneous views reached 29 thousand views.

The World Health Organization (@who) also provides, through its account on Tik Tok, accurate information and emphasizes practical measures that people around the world can take to protect themselves. In partnership with the organization, Tik Tok presented dedicated test posters in Arabic and English.

In addition to these organizations, it seems that the community "Tik Tok" is joining in these difficult times, where hashtag # has been launched together - against - Corona to encourage us to stand together in the face of this virus, and this hashtag has had 303.2 million views on the podium, with the participation of famous personalities Among them, Raya Abi Rashid, Ali Al-Khalidi, Saif Nabil, Somaya Al-Khashab and Maya Diab.
