Engadget --------- Following on the heels of Pinterest, Facebook is launching a new initiative aimed at combating anti-vaccine misinformation. Moving forward, whenever Facebook users search for vaccine-related content, including through groups and hashtags, the social network will display a card that prompts those individuals to instead obtain information from a credible source.

In other parts of the world, those same notifications will send people to the World Health Organization (WHO). Instagram will do the same on its platform.
