Move to "COVID-19 misinformation by governments"?

The parent article's move discussion closed 6-0 to move to the more concise name "COVID-19 misinformation". Any objection to me moving this article to "COVID-19 misinformation by governments"? If no objections in a day or two, I will make the move. Thanks. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:33, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Broaden Main Section Suggestion

How about this for the main section?: "During the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, many government officials and politicians from multiple countries began to spread false or un-confirmed data and information relating to COVID-19. Misinformation about the virus includes its origin, who is to blame, how it spreads, the severity of the virus, the death toll, methods of prevention, and cures. There is also misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine. Some governments are creating claims about what can protect their citizens from the disease. Others are placing blame on other countries about who supposedly created the disease or helped spread it." Prairie Astronomer Talk 04:16, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
