Twitter Files: Pharmaceutical Industry Lobbied Company to Censor Opposing Narratives Around Vaccines

Elon Musk’s Twitter released another batch of internal discussions on Monday, which revealed how the pharmaceutical industry lobbied social media to reinforce their own narratives and censor the public conversation around coronavirus vaccines and vaccine policies.

“The push included direct pressure from Pfizer partner BioNTech to censor activists demanding low-cost generic vaccines for low-income countries,” wrote Lee Fang, a journalist at the Intercept, who published the latest batch of Twitter Files on Monday.
