Twitter will crack down on tweets about fake coronavirus treatments and misinformation - Business Insider

a Wednesday update to its wide-ranging blog post

on managing the coronavirus, Twitter said it will require users to remove content that increases the chance that someone contracts or transmits the virus. This includes the denial of expert guidance; encouragement to use fake or ineffective treatments, preventions, and diagnostic techniques; and misleading content purporting to be from experts or authorities.

For example, it said, people who send tweets that claim social distancing is ineffective – or which encourage people not to practice social distancing – will need to remove those tweets.The social media firm has made working from home compulsory for all its staff, while it pays standard hourly rates to staff unable to work from home.

Good move Twitter as people should only be following medical advice
