The link to our story on the Washington Post website is now being labeled “sensitive content”by Twitter, which means the link is hidden and unclickable for most users. Google the story to read it I guess 🫠. Really underscores the point of the piece! https://t.co/2UGbjDKQzc — PolitiTweet.org

“You have 99% of the world who don’t want to pay attention to COVID and Long Covid, they want to pretend like it doesn’t exist. It feels like we’re this one small little cog in the machine, trying to stop the Titanic from sinking.” https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

“Physicians who are advocating for a more cautious approach to removing covid mitigations, tend to be the physicians who are challenged and reported [for misinformation] and get harassed.” https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

“The physicians that seem to be most challenged and criticized online are the ones trying to represent the people who are still at a pretty high risk for covid,” said @grahamwalker https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Whereas in 2020/2021 the public seemed united in efforts to conquer the virus, doctors said that now, people across the political spectrum often direct vitriol toward anyone attempting to raise awareness about the often devastating effects of covid-19. https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Medical experts and scientists who have fought back against prominent covid minimizers, anti vaxxers, and anti maskers have dealt w/ vicious online harassment. “It’s an all-around assault on just getting factual information out,” said @farid__jalali https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Doctors said shifting views on covid have led to an uptick in online attacks and users flagging content to Twitter as misinformation. People don’t want to accept that COVID is still causing unprecedented death and disability, they say https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz

Several tweets Twitter labeled as misinformation amplified factual studies related to long covid, a devastating condition that affects millions. Doctors and advocates say it’s made it harder to get the word out abt this widespread and disabling condition https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter users were suspended or had tweets flagged after sharing CDC data on childhood covid deaths, posting links to studies about COVID’s long term damage to the body in highly regarded scientific journals, and warning of the dangers of Long Covid https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

Emily Vraga, an associate professor at the University of Minnesota who specializes in misinformation, said Twitter’s recent errors confuse people and feed conspiracy theories. https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org

“In terms of public perception, it puts into question our credibility as scientists. If we put something on Twitter like a research study, and you say it’s wrong, it invalidates everything we’re saying.” https://t.co/jTmared74z — PolitiTweet.org
