The post that has gone viral on several social media platforms and said that you can turn off the coronavirus awareness caller tune, has turned out to be fake. The post had noted ways for turning off the COVID-19 caller tune on different mobile networks.
The fake post listed out the following ways to stop the COVID-19 caller tune:
How to Stop Corona Caller Tune on Airtel?

Several people have expressed their anger over this caller tune demanding that the government must stop this service. Although, the government is yet to make any official announcement in this regard.
This is to be noted that the coronavirus caller tune was put up by the government to raise awareness about the deadly virus and it can't be stopped as of now.
Earlier, Airtel, Jio, Vodafone and BSNL started playing a recorded message with a coughing sound and later they changed it to Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan talking in Hindi and English.
