US President Donald Trump retweeted to his 84 million followers a post on Monday containing a link to a misleading video, which was also deleted as part of Twitter's enforcement actions.

The White House did not respond to a Reuters request for comment.

The president also retweeted a post accusing Dr Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, of suppressing the use of hydroxychloroquine.

Fauci, who directs the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on Tuesday he has "not been misleading the American public under any circumstances."

In the misleading video, doctors touted hydroxychloroquine as a cure for COVID-19 and discounted the need for face masks against the pandemic. The right-wing news site Breitbart News, which posted the video, also showed a screenshot of its 17 million video views on Facebook before it was taken down.
