Crowd-sourced SQUINTs are used to generate quick-turnaround reports known as SQUINTSTAGRAMs that identify misinformation, provide the correct information, and provide recommendations for public health officials for communicating the correct information.
SQUINT™ is a crowdsourced misinformation identification program, and is stronger with you in the crowd. SQUINT is an app that empowers you to share misinformation whenever and wherever you see it. SQUINTers can choose to submit misinformation as well as receive SQUINTSTAGRAM™ rapid alerts as soon as they come out.
