World Economic Forum deletes Tweet claiming lockdowns improve cities

The World Economic Forum (WEF) has backtracked after it claimed that lockdowns were improving cities.

On Feb. 26, the World Economic Forum put out a video on Twitter with the caption: “lockdowns are quietly improving cities around the world.”

The video showed images of empty streets and idle businesses and claimed that lockdowns led to a drop in carbon emissions and improved air quality.
