WhatsApp has taken a big decision on rumors about the coronavirus being spread on WhatsApp and social media. WhatsApp has limited message forwarding. WhatsApp users will now be able to forward a message to only one user at a time. Earlier, there was a facility to forward a message to five people at a time, although the feature would be active only after an update.

In fact, all kinds of fake news are being shared on social media about the Coronavirus, which is a challenge for companies like Twitter, Google, and Facebook. In view of this, WhatsApp, a Facebook-owned company, set a new message forwarding limit, according to which you can forward a message to only one man at a time.
