YouTube pulls advertising from Russian backed anti-vax videos that kill children

YouTube said Friday that it would pull advertising from videos that espouse anti-vaccination conspiracy theories, according to BuzzFeed. The action contributes to a growing trend of social media companies taking action to combat the spread of vaccine misinformation online.

Social media companies, including Facebook and YouTube, have recently been facing pressure to get better at this, following inquiries from media and calls from lawmakers. The World Health Organization recently categorized "vaccine hesitancy" as one of 2019's top threats to global health.

The US is experiencing a measles outbreak — a previously near-eradicated disease — that's affecting unvaccinated children. Social media has played a significant role in proliferating the false conspiracy that vaccines can cause autism.
