(KYMA, KECY/CNN) - Facebook's 'Meta' could be easing-up on the way it handles Covid-19 misinformation.

The company is considering a proposal to label or demote Covid misinformation, instead of removing it altogether.

Tuesday - Meta asked its board if the tougher pandemic policies are still warranted.

But he added that it's time that we relook at Covid policies put in place early in the pandemic.
