TL;DR, this is quoting from https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/medical-misinformation-policy https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/medical-misin..., "What is in violation" > "Tweet Label" > last item of point 3:
> False or misleading information regarding the safety or science behind approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines, such as:
>> [...]
>> False or misleading claims that people who have received the vaccine can spread or shed the virus (or symptoms, or immunity) to unvaccinated people.
Now for a definite correct-me-if-I'm-wrong: I was under the impression that vaccination has no impact on transmissibility, and only protects the vaccinated individual from succumbing to the virus payload?
IF the above is true, this item in the policy is confusingly written at best, and a very unfortunate opportunity for a field day to be had at worst.
The article notes that
> This means Twitter users could now be sanctioned for sharing or discussing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) admission that “vaccinated people can still become infected and have the potential to spread the virus to others.”
In any case, here's the page as of ~nowish, with the above point intact:
