As the world faces an unprecedented public health emergency, we want to be open about the steps we’re taking to keep people safe. To support social distancing and working from home, we need to work differently and rely more on automated systems to help enforce our rules.
What this means for you:
- We’re working to improve our tech so it can make more enforcement calls — this might result in some mistakes.
- We’re meeting daily to see what changes we need to make.
- We’re staying engaged with partners around the world.
We’re responding to this rapidly evolving situation, and we'll continue to review the Twitter Rules in the context of COVID-19 and make changes as necessary.

Update: we’re expanding our safety rules to include content that could place people at a higher risk of transmitting COVID-19.

Now, we will require people to remove Tweets that include the following:
Content that increases the chance that someone contracts or transmits the virus, including:
- Denial of expert guidance
- Encouragement to use fake or ineffective treatments, preventions, and diagnostic techniques
- Misleading content purporting to be from experts or authorities
For examples and more information:
