Instagram has removed the account of Robert F Kennedy Jr (nephew of late President John F Kennedy) for making false claims about coronavirus and vaccines.

Kennedy had his account permanently taken down "for repeatedly sharing debunked claims", Facebook, which owns Instagram, said in a statement.
His Facebook account remains active despite similar claims posted there.

Kennedy, a lawyer and environmentalist, is the son of late former US attorney general, senator and presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy.

He chairs Children's Health Defense, a group that expresses scepticism about the health benefits of vaccines. He campaigned against the immunisation of measles during a resurgence of the infection.

He has addressed anti-lockdown protests and his videos are regularly translated by activists based in other countries.

His niece, a physician, wrote a piece in the New York Times entitled: Vaccines Are Safe, No Matter What Robert Kennedy Jr Says.
