Twitter locked the account of Donald Trump Jr. for approximately 12 hours, after the president’s son posted a viral video of doctors touting Hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19.

The video, which received over 14 million views before it was blacklisted and scrubbed by Facebook, Twitter and YouTube following a complaint by a New York Times employee, featured members of America’s Frontline Doctors – a recently formed advocacy group which claims that “American life has fallen casualty to a massive disinformation campaign” against Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) – a decades-old malaria drug used by India and several other countries as part of their front-line treatment of the novel coronavirus, yet which has shown mixed efficacy in studies.
The press conference began with South Carolina Congressman Ralph Norman discussing the need to get America’s children back to school, before the doctors introduce themselves and describe their experiences with HCQ.
Social media companies are censoring videos of Dr. Stella Immanuel and the other doctors involved in real-time because that’s what Democrats want them to do. Many doctors & studies say hydroxychloroquine works. They don’t want @realDonaldTrump to be right. pic.twitter.com/v2xHu0hsM4

Reactions to Silicon Valley’s decision to scrub the press conference, as well as Trump Jr.’s temporary suspension, have drawn the ire of supporters and free speech advocates alike.
Facebook isn't unbiased… the comms guy representing them on Twitter spent his ENTIRE CAREER working for Democrats in Congress before going to FACEBOOK. https://t.co/av8pSYKn4r

Now @YouTube has pulled the video of the doctors. I don’t care if you think the doctors are geniuses or nuts. If you value the foundations of our country, you should be questioning why social media companies are colluding to stop licensed doctors from expressing opinions freely.

Here’s the guys involved. I just have to ask. @andymstone, what business does Facebook have overruling the medical expertise of licensed doctors who’ve seen hydroxychloroquine work in patients and in studies? Is Facebook unilaterally deciding what science or medicine is accurate? pic.twitter.com/ABBESyZ182

Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube are taking this video down.
This is an extremely dangerous precedent to set for the media.
Posting a video does not necessarily mean you agree with all of it’s content or that it’s entirely true.
