Amid the misinformation during the last two years of the Covid-19 pandemic, YouTube has announced a much needed certification.

Health creators in the US can apply at health.youtube starting October 27, and the company will continue to expand availability to other markets and additional medical specialities in the future, said YouTube in a blogpost.
