PSAKI: "First, we are in regular touch with these social media platforms and those engagements typically happen through members of our senior staff but also members of our COVID-19 team, given, as Dr. Murthy conveyed, this is a big issue of misinformation, specifically on the pandemic. In terms of actions that we have taken or we are working to take, I should say, from the federal government, we’ve increased disinformation research and tracking within the Surgeon General’s Office, we're flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation."
