In the last few weeks, you may have seen Tweets with labels linking to additional info about COVID-19. Not all of those Tweets had potentially misleading content associating COVID-19 and 5G. We apologize for any confusion and we're working to improve our labeling process. (1/4)
Our policies prohibit sharing false or misleading content related to COVID-19, as this could lead to harm. More on this: https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/company/2020/covid-19.html#protecting (2/4)
We may also use labels with links to additional context and information to help keep you informed about misleading or disputed topics. Here’s an example of a Moment we've curated relating to false claims of a link between 5G technology and COVID-19: https://twitter.com/i/events/1246086575043178496 (3/4)
To show context about these topics where it’s likely to be useful, we're building new automated capabilities to apply these labels to Tweets we think could be relevant.

As we improve this process to be more precise, our goal is to show fewer labels on unrelated Tweets. (4/4)
