YouTube suspended MRCTV for 2 weeks after it posted an episode of The Brittany Hughes Show podcast discussing censored COVID-19 content: In a recent episode of her podcast, MRCTV managing editor Brittany Hughes discussed news coverage of controversial critiques of masking, lockdowns, the rate of infection among children, death counts, the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and natural immunity. She pointed out the questions and authoritative warnings that were censored by social media companies but are now reported in the news and accepted by the CDC. YouTube removed the video and suspended the account for two weeks due to alleged "medical misinformation." YouTube did not explain exactly which parts of the video violated the policy but Hughes included a clip of President Joe Biden claiming that those who have received the COVID-19 vaccines "are not going to get COVID" and YouTube's COVID-19 medical misinformation policy forbids "[c]laims that any vaccine is a guaranteed prevention method for COVID-19." The platform gave MRCTV its second strike for posting the video and rejected its appeal to overturn the censorship. The platform's three-strikes system allows for a warning and two strikes within a 90 day period before a third strike would remove a channel from the platform entirely.
