Facebook has removed hundreds of accounts which it says were involved in anti-vax disinformation campaigns operated from Russia.

The company said the network of accounts targeted India, Latin America and the US.

They attempted to recruit influencers to spread false claims to undermine public confidence in particular Covid-19 vaccines, it added.

Shouldn't GNHQ do the same?

I read that nearly all the anti-vax stuff originated from just 12 accounts.
