Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) is taking the rare step of removing
false claims about cures and prevention methods for the coronavirus,
saying such content would violate its ban on misinformation leading to
“physical harm.”
Hashtags used to spread misinformation on
Instagram will be blocked or restricted, as well as alerts by users who
share content about the disease that third-party fact-checkers deem
false.
It’s an unusual move for Facebook, which generally
limits the distribution of content containing health misinformation
through restrictions on search results and advertising, but permits
original posts to stay up.
