The announcement comes days after YouTube co-signed a joint industry statement on coronavirus, with Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Reddit, and Twitter.

"We’re helping millions of people stay connected while also jointly combating fraud and misinformation about the virus, elevating authoritative content on our platforms, and sharing critical updates in coordination with government healthcare agencies around the world," the statement said.

The company recently announced changes to its policy in a response to the coronavirus outbreak. According to the announcement, YouTube will rely less on human moderators to review content uploaded to its service, which may result in an increased number of video removals.
