Oct 27, 2021 at 20:28 comment added Faito Dayo @Alexei I have found a few incidents where critizing the Chinese government's Anti-COVID campaign or revealing the side-effect of the Chinese made vaccine gets the dissenter into a meeting with the police. However, they are reposts on Reddit and the original Weibo--Chinese version of twitter--has been deleted. And of course Chinese government won't ever disclose such cases, even as a warning.

Oct 26, 2021 at 18:20 comment added Alexei @FaitoDayo Yes, any law or a less official rule that de facto produces a similar effect (e.g. people getting fined over anti-vaccination speech) is fine for me.
Oct 26, 2021 at 18:02 comment added Faito Dayo Banning of certain things in authoritarian government sometimes doesn't involve an actual law that clearly states this term or this type of speech is forbidden. But they clearly practice such censorship. Does answers that demonstrate the behavior, instead of a law, suit your need?

Oct 26, 2021 at 11:29 comment added nick012000 I'm gonna guess that there's a big list of authoritarian countries that don't have freedom of speech to begin with that could be listed here.
Oct 23, 2021 at 6:54 comment added Alexei @AndrewGrimm For Hungary this seems indeed part of a bigger law that also tried to bar the journalists from finding data about the evolution of the pandemic. Since the article is more than 1 year old, I am wondering if that law is still in place. Samoa's example seems to be closely related to what I am looking for although it refers to measles, not COVID (the article is written shortly before COVID-19 became a global issue).

Oct 21, 2021 at 15:59 comment added Alexei @TheSimpliFire Actually, for the new deaths, Romania is #1 when compared to the population. However, I am interested in the freedom of speech limitation when it comes to anti-vaccination speech.
Oct 21, 2021 at 15:56 comment added TheSimpliFire Look at the table here and sort by Deaths/1M people. As verification of the numbers, a governmental source is listed in the Updates section when you click on a specific country's information. NB the numbers are not the same as Johns Hopkins' data due to counting differences but the differences are very minor.
Oct 21, 2021 at 15:53 comment added Alexei @TheSimpliFire Ref. to "Hungary and Czech Republic" as examples. Can you please provide a reference? I cannot find anything in English related to this or maybe I do not know how to search?
