may 22, 2020 - One Fifth of English People in Study Blame Jews or Muslims for COVID-19

Description:

"Nearly half of people in England believe in conspiracy theories about COVID-19, according to a survey carried out by psychologists at the University of Oxford, with nearly 20 percent agreeing separately that either Jews or Muslims were responsible for spreading the virus. In a survey of over 2,500 people, almost half of those questioned endorsed to some degree the idea that "COVID-19 is a bioweapon developed by China to destroy the West" and around one-fifth endorsed to some degree that "Jews have created the virus to collapse the economy for financial gain".Nearly 20 percent of those asked also agreed to some extent with the statement that "Muslims are spreading the virus as an attack on Western values.”
