Facebook to remove more false coronavirus claims from platform – NBC News
Facebook said Monday it will help users find out where and when they can receive the coronavirus vaccine.
Facebook said on Monday it will expand a list of false health claims it bans from the platform to include debunked claims about vaccines in general, such as that they are toxic or cause autism.
The social media company said in a blog post it was increasing the types of false claims about the coronavirus, its vaccine and other vaccines that it will remove, including that COVID-19 is a man-made virus, and that vaccines are dangerous. Such claims are already prohibited in ads on the platform.
