British government calls social media companies to fight misinformation about vaccines as Prime Minister Boris Johnson expressed concern over the rising cases of measles

Though anti-vaccine sentiments have been around for as long as vaccines have existed, health experts worry that anti-vaccine propaganda can spread more quickly on social media. That can push parents who are worried about vaccines toward refusing to inoculate their children against various diseases, leading to their comeback.

But anti-vax information still slips through. That includes soundly debunked notions that vaccines cause autism or that mercury preservatives and other substances in them can harm people. Of course, for people already distrustful of the government when it comes to health information, this might not do much.

UK to pressure social media companies to fight anti-vax infoBritain's government is planning to pressure social media companies to do more to fight misinformation on vaccines following a spike in measles cases. Anti-vaxxers are misinformed and dangerous. A disease that was eradicated has returned because some individuals are too egotistical to accept the truth. This gentleman is not allegedly bright. Damn, this guy looks like a short trump!!
