ADTwitter removed the videos, deleting several of the tweets that President Trump shared, and added a note to its trending topics warning about the potential risks of hydroxychloroquine use. The video Trump shared Monday night showed a collection of doctors speaking in favor of treating covid-19 patients with the antimalarial drug. Facebook removed the video first, around 9:30 p.m., but not before more than 14 million people had watched it on the platform. After Facebook removed the video, Immanuel offered the tech company a warning on Twitter. The first tweet the president shared, which included the clip, suggested hydroxychloroquine was being maligned in a ploy to discredit Trump and harm his reelection bid.
