Twitter Removes Giuliani Tweet Pushing Misinformation About Coronavirus

By Christine Zosche 

Twitter removed a tweet from Rudy Giuliani on Friday that contained several pieces of misinformation related to coronavirus. (Mashable)

On Friday, Giuliani tweeted direct quotes from dedicated Trump supporter Charlie Kirk, rather than retweeting him for some reason. Kirk and Giuliani appear to be riffing on an article posted by conspiracy blogger Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit, and which falsely claims that: “Hydroxychloroquine is safe and in at least three international tests was found 100% effective in treating the coronavirus.” (Mediaite)
