Madonna's social media post about a false coronavirus story appears to have been removed from Instagram, after fans flagged it down.
The 61-year-old singer shared a video from controversial US figure Dr Stella Immanuel, which had also previously been retweeted by President Donald Trump.
In her Instagram post, Madonna described Dr Immanuel as her "hero". The video showed a number of doctors claiming malaria drug hydroxychloroquine was a "cure" and preventative measure for COVID-19.
Dr Immanuel also claims face masks are unnecessary. She's previously used her platform in the past to spread a catalogue of outlandish claims, including theories around alien DNA and "demon sperm".
