&quot;Twitter is expanding its use of warning labels, targeting tweets that contain misleading details about coronavirus vaccines.<p>&quot;The decision has been made to strengthen the social network&#x27;s existing Covid-19 guidance, which has led to the removal of more than 8,400 tweets and challenged 11.5 million accounts worldwide.<p>&quot;Labels providing additional context are already attached to tweets with disputed information about the pandemic.&quot;<p>I applaud the move but we&#x27;re clearly dealing with a &#x27;too little, too late&#x27; situation in regards to social media misinformation. We&#x27;ve opened Pandora&#x27;s Box here and there&#x27;s no going back.
