• Twitter to start removing COVID-19 vaccine misinforma­tion

-

Twitter said Wednesday that it will begin removing misinforma­tion about COVID-19 vaccinatio­ns from its site.

It listed among posts that will removed as those including false claims that the virus is not real, debunked claims about the effects of receiving the vaccine and baseless claims that suggest that immunizati­ons are used to harm or control people.

Twitter said in a blog post that it will start enforcing the new policy next week. If people send tweets in violation of the rules, they will be required to delete them before they are able to tweet again. Before the offending tweet is removed, Twitter will hide it from view.
