Facebook on Friday rebuffed US Vice President Joe Biden’s claim that disinformation on social media is killing people, claiming that its efforts to disseminate facts are actually saving lives.
“We won’t be distracted by charges that aren’t backed up by evidence,” Facebook said in response to Biden’s remark.
According to the top social network, moreover two billion individuals have accessed authoritative information about Covid-19 and vaccines on Facebook, which is more than any other place on the internet.
