SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Dr Robert Malone is back on Twitter and users are ecstatic about his return. Malone was previously banned from the microblogging platform for violating the platform's Covid-19 misinformation policies. He gathered a massive following by promoting anti-vaccine falsehoods. Malone claimed that the US had become like "Nazi Germany" where the society was "hypnotized" to believe in vaccines.

The American physician and biochemist, who reportedly claimed that he was the inventor of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines was banned from Twitter in 2021, only to return a year later. His claims of being the inventor gave him great appeal to anti-vaccine audiences. His account was suspended as part of efforts by Twitter to crack down on harmful COVID-19 misinformation. Malone wrote in his comeback post, "I'm back... Welcome to Fifth Gen (Information) Warfare The battleground is consensus of the swarm and your own mind. Please share my substack from today."
