    In any issue there CAN be 'two sides' but it's a problem when one side is political and
    not factual - it isn't a 'side' at all.
    In this case Youtube is damned if they do and damned if they don't. But it's a good call
    as so many lives are at stake. But next time maybe it won't be a correct call.

    I'm willing to bet everything I don't own that this decision is purely commercial, not ethical. Many advertisers nowadays must be terrified of being even remotely associated with the Trump supporting religious right usually identified with anti-vaxxers.

    Depends if you are misrepresenting what is a local (USA) situation and implying it is global

    it is when you consider that that number is from a pool of vaccinated people and you do not represent those as a part of the vaccinated total in comparison to an unvaccinated total. It is also spreading misinformation if there is no analysis as to why the vaccine failed for these people

    Is it misinformation to point out the amount of money the pharma cartels have donated to the people holding the reins of power?[/QUOTE]

    there is no harm in encouraging health but there is great harm in insisting it is the only preventative measure or that it is 100% effective

    I
    Depends on what you are blaming this on x lack of health or the fact that when stress is put on the ICU people die

    It is when you focus on mortality rather than morbidity
    I will save myself the effort for the rest with a broad - yep! Politically biased misinformation

    Free speech is dying in the Social Authoritarian State of California. The real issue is that Silicon Valley controls too much of the tech industry.
    Better alternatives exist like Gab.com,minds, Rumble etc

    Why are people so obsessed with trying to force Twitter, Facebook and YouTube to conform and keep growing these monopolies instead of growing alternatives? Let youtube die

    That's a conspiracy theory. Truth be told authorities all over the world are frustrated
    with the four and a half million deaths, the two hundred a twenty million infected people
    and the on-going anti-vax campaign which shows little sign of slowing down.
    Nothing to do with 'Trump' or 'business' or 'religious' or 'right.'

    What do authorities all over the world have to do with YouTube?... Unless you are just spouting a conspiracy theory.

    I don't think you know what a conspiracy theory is. A theory on on Human behavior isn't a conspiracy.

    What part of “GLOBAL” does not apply to you tube?

    And there’s a prime example of the major ill facing the US currently….EVERY act of community responsibility MUST be seen as a political act of one stripe or another.

    Anti-vax is anti- science, plain and simple. And the laws and theories surrounding science don’t give a toss as to your political stance. Viruses, bacteria and other nasties infect people who vote Democrat, Republican, Fascist or Communist.

    Time to take a mature look at the problems facing the world…

    YouTube isn't qualified to regulate medical discussions. It is just irresponsible of them to try. Still, their dumb choice if they want to.

    They aren’t. They’re regulating anti- medicine discussions…

    The US is reporting 9.7 million infections total. The entire globe including the US is 18.7 million. How does 4% of the global population have 50% of all infections.

    You have never read anything from the Israel study. If you did you would know that with over 80% vaccinated, the vaccinated are 27 times higher to be hospitalized than those who are unvaccinated who already had Covid.

    Because you were bloody useless in combatting it, particularly in the early stages…

    Nah this is fascism, clearly lived under for a good amount of time and as you see people don't even realize were they live is :)

    Let me know if you need more from the Motherland there are literally 100's of these revisited gestapo tactics in practice currently in Good old Mother Australia :)

    Its a mathematical impossibility. Viruses don't work that way. lol
    Even if nobody wore a mask and nobody got vaccinated, 4% of the population couldn't have 50% of all global infections.
    But its a free country. You can believe what ever you can swallow.

    Good for YouTube.

    The Russians are especially upset about this and accused the German gov't of closing down their RT Youtube-presence.

    Not all that bright, those Russians.

    Not so sure about Australia, unmasked cops beating people for not wearing a mask seem a little gestapo'ISH to me!

    What do you mean “work that way”….?? They aren’t some kind of conscious agent…good grief…!

    It’s a case of a straightforward mathematical function. Allow a population of potential victims to freely intermingle and the virus will proliferate. Actively discourage vaccination and the problem will be made worse. “Downplay” the danger in the early stages….even worse…

    I’ve explained this before and it’s becoming tedious….in the same way that the US mismanagement has resulted in more infections than their population would indicate, countries like my own have infections way below what the population would suggest, because we’ve taken much more stringent measures…
