An-Najah News - Facebook started banning adverts that discourage people from having vaccinations. However, Facebook will allow a political exception, and adverts that "advocate for or against legislation or government policies around vaccines."

The social media will also run media campaigns to encourage users to get a flu vaccine this yea along with  the World Health Organisation and UNICEF to improve vaccination rates.

Groups and pages that spread false information are already hidden on the platform's search tool.

Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, Facebook has tightened its rules around COVID-related misinformation.
