I've worked with some of the reddit safety team on stuff, as I'm a part of CTI League who specifically deals with COVID crap. They are TRYING to get a handle on this, but as an expert in the covid mis/disinformation field, it ain't easy! I appreciate the work reddit's safety team has done and their cooperation with us. It will take an army of people who can think critically and discern fact from fiction to get a handle on this problem, though. Everyone needs to do their part in calling it out, reporting it, deplatforming the people who disseminate the bad info... We have our work cut out.
