Social media provides a platform for the public to express or share information. Its emergence has largely transformed the dynamics of how people communicate by allowing the sharing of information instantaneously and interactively among individuals, groups, organizations, and governments. It is important to use social media platforms such as social networking sites (e.g., Facebook and Twitter) as sources of publicly available data, as intervention platforms, and for dissemination of research.
