Twitter flags another Trump tweet for violating rules on COVID-19 information

Twitter on Sunday flagged another tweet by US President Donald Trump, in which he claimed he was immune to the coronavirus, for violating company's rules about spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to COVID-19.

"A total and complete sign off from White House Doctors yesterday. That means I can't get it (immune), and can't give it. Very nice to know!!!" Trump said in a tweet, which has now been flagged by Twitter with a disclaimer. 

Twitter last week disabled retweets on an earlier tweet from Trump

 suggesting that COVID-19 was just like the flu, and added a warning label that said it broke its rules on "spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to COVID-19."  Reuters
