Because intoxes rub shoulders more and more with real news, writing

1. Yes, Emmanuel Macron did say that France would be ready for a second wave of Covid-19

It was last July.

Contrary to what Emmanuel Macron said.

Many misleading images have circulated on social networks.

Watch out for this photo out of context

The cliché, viral, dates from last March.
