BITA11 - Break in the Action: Youtube Pulls California Doctors' Press Conference

A viral account from two California doctors, Dr. Dan Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi, have voiced the concerns of millions: When will the coronavirus “shelter-in-place” orders end, and does it really make scientific sense to quarantine the healthy?

On April 22, 2020, they held a press conference and said emphatically that based on their analysis businesses should re-open, and people should return to regular life, without masks.

TruNews has chosen to re-post this video in its entirety, without edit, because YouTube has begun to censor it from their platform, citing a violation of “community guidelines.”

In an interview with CNN’s Brian Stelter, prior to the censoring of the video above, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said she plans to stamp out misinformation, and examples of content that would be a violation of YouTube’s policies include anything “that is medically unsubstantiated," such as someone saying “take vitamin C, take turmeric, like those are/or will cure you.”

Wojcicki added: “Anything that would go against World Health Organization [WHO] recommendations would be a violation of our policy."
