Twitter has banned conservative author Alex Berenson due to violations of its COVID-19 misinformation rules, the social media giant confirmed on Sunday.
“The account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation rules,” a Twitter spokesperson said in a statement to The Hill.
Berenson said in a Substack post on Saturday that he had been banned from Twitter.
“This was the tweet that did it. Entirely accurate. I can’t wait to hear what a jury will make of this,” he said. “Meantime, guess you’ll be getting more Substacks.”
In a now-deleted tweet, Berenson compared the vaccine to a therapeutic “with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile.” He also questioned vaccine mandates.
“It doesn’t stop infection. Or transmission. Don’t think of it as a vaccine,” Berenson said in his tweet.
“Think of it – at best – as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed IN ADVANCE OF ILLNESS. And we want to mandate it? Insanity”
