Twitter to label disputed COVID-19 tweets to alert users about misleading COVID-19 claims

The new rule is the latest in a wave of stricter policies that tech companies are rolling out to confront an outbreak of virus-related misinformation on their sites. Facebook and Google, which owns YouTube, have already put similar systems in place.
