Facebook is marking legitimate news articles about the coronavirus as spam because of a bug

Facebook appears to be marking some posts linking to information and articles about the coronavirus and COVID-19 as spam, as observed by one Verge reporter and many users on Twitter on Tuesday evening.
The issue is due to a “bug in an anti-spam system,” according to Guy Rosen, Facebook’s vice president of integrity. Rosen says the company is fixing and bringing all of the posts back.
We're on this - this is a bug in an anti-spam system, unrelated to any changes in our content moderator workforce. We're in the process of fixing and bringing all these posts back. More soon.
