YouTube has blocked Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) from uploading videos for seven days over clips the platform said violated its COVID-19 “medical misinformation policies.”
The clips were taken from a June 3 appearance by Johnson at the Milwaukee Press Club in which the senator ripped the Trump and Biden administrations for “not only ignoring but working against robust research [on] the use of cheap, generic drugs to be repurposed for early treatment of COVID,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.
“It always baffled me that there was such a concerted effort to deny the American public the type of robust exploration research into early treatment early in this pandemic,” Johnson added before describing the drugs hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin as “incredibly safe.”
