Crazy. Didn't think vampires, let alone Batman could be susceptible to covid.
Jokes aside I hope those affected get better.

Weird, first story I saw said the filming was suspended because someone on the set tested positive, but made no mention of it being Pattinson or anyone else from the cast. Now I'm wondering if there's any merit to this at all or if it's just more of the same celeb propaganda to peddle coronavirus fear. There's been a lot of that.
The line that sticks out to me:

I'd read the fact that they declined to comment as confirmation, otherwise they would have just said no.

Which part of this do you think is propaganda?

I have to admit I was a little confused by what they meant.

Amount of people in this thread complaining about “propaganda”.
No wonder the west has struggled to combat the virus compared to Asia with the amount of arrogance and ignorance being spread!
Hopefully Patterson recovers fast.
Me personally, took me 4 weeks to shake it and another 3 months to shake the fatigue and brain fog.

This never would have happened to Adam West. He was properly prepared and always had a gas mask in his utility belt.

No one of note is dying of corona. No one healthy, young or fit is dying of corona. Corona's statistics are warped by including every death as "corona".
You can throw WHO numbers or whatnot is peoples face, but this "pandemic" is the farce this clown world deserves. Vive la mafia, for it is going strong in 2020.

Hopefully a quick recovery and no health complications as a result. Looking forward to the movie.

It can be really bad for fit people too:
A young, fit nurse shared alarming before-and-after photos showing the impact the coronavirus had on his body
Mike Schultz, a 43-year-old nurse from San Francisco, had no underlying conditions. But when he contracted the novel coronavirus, it was devastating.

this stuff applies to most sickness, your body will take some damage and selfies won't look good on the reboundIt can be really bad for fit people too:

But COVID is fake lololol 
Even if 75% of COVID patients are included for the purposes of padding, that’s still 47,000 that didn’t need to die.
Also, you're an asshole. No one of note? Everyone who has passed from COVID-19 is "of note" to the people who love them. You don't have to be famous to matter.

Hi, yeah. No. I know someone that died of corona. They were my age, twenty-two, with no health issues. So cut the "no one of note". People still die.

I was enthused by the trailer; but this is making Pattinson look like one of the weaker Batmen.

Pandemic coverage has been dripping with it, fake and exaggerated stories coming from all over the place like that viral video from CBS News of the crying nurse or staging a testing line with hospital staff to make it look crowded when it was empty (Sky News Australia Youtube link). Does it really shock you that Hollywood would use its influence to manipulate people? They've been doing it your entire life.
The Canadian government and individual provinces proudly admitted to it publicly when they gathered local stars to "get younger people to follow the rules." This is how our world works, when they want to influence people to do something they roll out celebs. Those celebs don't always know what they're supporting, but so long as they think they're doing the right thing they go along with it - easiest place to see this is in politics where most celebs have no idea how ignorant they sound.
Dwayne Johnson, Alyssa Milano, Tom Hanks, Courtney Cox, Morgan Freeman, Jennifer Anniston are all some examples just off the top of my head contributing to the nonsense. I raised the question about Pattinson because it comes back to back to back with the first two I mentioned and they could have easily stuck to the original reporting which made no mention of him. Why the need to throw his name out there after the fact if the movie is suspended anyway? His name carries weight whereas the announcement of a suspension by itself does not.
He's a healthy guy, only issues I could find were related to anxiety, so it's not like he's at any risk whatsoever. If he does have it he probably won't even have any symptoms.

Who said anything about dying? The article just says the actor tested positive and is self isolating. What is 'propaganda' about that?

This article doesn't seem exaggerated at all though. Which sentences do you take issue with and how would you have written it differently?
