YouTube has announced that it will dedicate a part of its main page to videos about Coronavirus. As expected, the content placed there will be cured by the YouTube team, to ensure that it is informative and does not spread false news about the pandemic.
The sources will be local news and health authorities, the goal being to provide users with useful content as soon as they enter the site. The truth is that like any serious situation, there will be people creating fake or sensational content to collect views or money.
