YouTube Censors Florida Governor DeSantis and His Panel of Experts for Violating Junk-Science Standards
By Nick Mastrangelo
Recently, Youtube censored a panel held by Florida’s governor, Ron Desantis. The panel was designed to discuss recent research findings related to Covid-19. This panel consisted of professors of medicine from Harvard, Oxford, and Stanford, all citing specific peer-reviewed research from which they formed their opinions.
The panel spoke against forcing children and vaccinated people to wear masks, and said there was no proof that lockdowns reduced the spread or death rates of Covid-19. These are facts and not opinions. They cited specific, peer-reviewed scholarly research on which they based their opinions.
But YouTube decided that these experts were spreading misinformation, and took down the video, “because it included content that contradicts the consensus of local and global health authorities regarding the efficacy of masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
Zero Hedge referred to this latest censorship of the Florida Governor and his panel of experts as this week’s absurdity.
