A Newsmax White House correspondent has been permanently banned from Twitter for spreading COVID-19 misinformation. This comes a week after the reporter, Emerald Robinson, was suspended for violating the social media giant’s policies.

“Robinson’s account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of our Covid-19 misinformation policy,” a Twitter spokesperson said, as per CNN reports.

The Newsmax reporter’s initial seven-day suspension was lifted on Wednesday. Apparently, her additional tweets containing COVID-19 vaccine information prompted the ban. 

Robinson had last week said that COVID-19 vaccines contain tracking devices linked to the devil. Prior to her ban, she had more than 400,000 followers.

“Dear Christians: the vaccines contain a bioluminescent marker called LUCIFERASE so that you can be tracked. Read the last book of the New Testament to see how this ends,” Robinson wrote in a tweet.

“That claim has been debunked: The Covid-19 vaccines do not contain luciferase.”

One of her tweets in September read that if people want to avoid “taking the Mark of the Beast,” then they should not get “anything that injects LUCIFERASE into your body.”

Newsmax, last week, said that it has pulled Robinson from its airwaves while it reviews her social media posts. The TV network is currently being sued for defamation by a voting technology company.
