Dr. Robert Malone, a key contributor to mRNA vaccine technology and an outspoken critic
of COVID-19 mandates and rules, was suspended by Twitter.

Writing on his Substack page, Malone, who had massed more than 500,000 followers,
confirmed that his account was “permanently suspended from Twitter” and said,
“We all knew it would happen eventually.”

“Over a half million followers gone in a blink of an eye. That means I must have been on
the mark, so to speak,” he wrote on Dec. 29. “Over the target. It also means we lost a
critical component in our fight to stop these vaccines being mandated for children and to
stop the corruption in our governments, as well as the medical-industrial complex and
pharmaceutical industries.”

According to Malone’s post, he directed users to read his Substack page for future updates.
Meanwhile, he’s slated to appear on comedian and UFC commentator Joe Rogan’s
podcast on Dec. 30.

“Substack is absolutely the best way to see my writings. I appreciate everyone’s support
in signing up for my newsletter. It truly matters to me,” he wrote in the post.

When attempting to access Malone’s page, it gives the boilerplate Twitter suspension message:
“Account suspended. Twitter suspends accounts that violate the Twitter rules.”

The San Francisco-based social media firm hasn’t issued a public comment yet on why it
suspended Malone’s account, or specifically what post drew the company’s ire. Twitter has
not responded to a request by The Epoch Times for comment by press time.

Malone told The Epoch Times on Wednesday evening that Twitter provided him with no
advance notice before it handed down the suspension.

“Over the past year, I have had a few notices from Twitter that there was a complaint about
a post but that no action was taken,” he said. “I received no warning prior to the banning.”

Malone provided the Epoch Times with a screenshot with text from Twitter that reads, 
“Specifically, for: Violating our policy on spreading misleading and potentially harmful
information related to COVID-19. You may not use Twitter’s services to share false or
misleading information about COVID-19 which may lead to harm.” The platform didn’t
appear to elaborate further.

In an interview with The Epoch Times earlier this year, Malone said that the immunity
conferred by a previous COVID-19 infection is superior to that conferred by the COVID-19 vaccines.

People are “faced with a situation where they had been told that natural immunity was
not as protective, that they can’t rely on that; that if you’ve been previously infected,
you should still get both doses of vaccine; that this vaccination would provide broad
durable protection, it would protect you and it would protect your elders from you
potentially spreading disease to them,” he said during the interview,
which was published in September.

Twitter has drawn the ire of free speech advocates and Republicans after banning
high-profile individuals, including former President Donald Trump. Another prominent
critic of COVID-19 mandates, former New York Times reporter Alex Berenson,
filed a lawsuit against Twitter earlier this month over its ban of his account months earlier.

Berenson, who also operates a Substack page, alleged Twitter’s permanent suspension
from the social media platform violated the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
as well as laws in California.

“Twitter is indisputably a messenger service. A longstanding California law regulates
messenger services as ‘common carriers.’ This means that they must accept all
messages they receive. Twitter thus must accept all tweets it receives.
It has no First Amendment rights to refuse them on the basis that it does not
agree with them,” Berenson wrote on his page on Dec. 21.
