New York YouTube on Thursday said it will no longer allow misinformation related to abortion on its platform, including false claims about the safety of the procedure and potentially unsafe instructions about how to self-induce an abortion.
The video-sharing service added abortion-related content to its medical misinformation policies, which also prohibit false claims about Covid-19 and vaccines. The policy change takes effect Thursday."We believe it's important to connect people to content from authoritative sources regarding health topics, and we continuously review our policies and products as real world events unfold," YouTube spokesperson Elena Hernandez said in a statement.
