This is a terrible thing for humanity. There’s no other way it can be said.

I’m thankful to have a social media platform that understands the danger of misinformation about a pandemic.

Several top executives overseeing content moderation policies and enforcement, including Twitter’s former head of Trust and Safety, Yoel Roth, have left the company.

@DrHankPym I am worried for our ability to control and dampen down viral threats when I see this happen. I know what occurred in Australia when Facebook failed to do much about antivax and anti science rhetoric and attacks. We cede control over this misinformation at our peril. The world is walking willing into an large scale pandemic hellscape…willingly…unless governments act to prevent this.

@RevealingLight I’ll tell you, it’s really stressful for people in medicine. There are consequences to spreading this junk and it risks the lives of other people. It’s irresponsible and wrong.
