Threads removes a Mehdi Hasan post claiming Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s complicity in a Samoan measles epidemic: MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan complained on Meta's short-form platform Threads that the new platform had removed one of his posts for "false information." The host had posted "In 2019, Samoa faced a horrific and preventable measles epidemic. Dozens of innocent kids died, after vaccination rates fell, egged on by RFK Jr. & his anti-vax organization. Shamelessly and dishonestly, RFK even blamed the deaths on the vaccine, in a letter to the Samoan PM. Watch my deep-dive on what happened in Samoa and RFK's role in it." Threads removed the post, claiming that it "goes against [the] Community Guidelines on false information," but did not specify what was false.
