A new campaign is putting pressure on Facebook to combat Spanish-language misinformation.

Last month, almost a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, Facebook cracked down on vaccine misinformation. But researchers say the social media platform hasn't been flagging Spanish-language misinformation as effectively as it does in English.

Because many farmworkers speak Spanish, veterinarian schools are pushing to open the lines of communication and ensure accurate medical care by producing more bilingual graduates.
