Proposal: Global Topic Ban on Promoting Unproven COVID-19 Treatments

[Colibri]

@Skywatcher

And the OP was specifically given a topic ban about an hour before this thread was started. Seems to me nothing else needs to be done unless someone else takes up the mantle.

Here are the relevant instructions.

@Colibri

Moderating

You first.

Stop promoting untested treatments for coronavirus. This is simply misinformation. If you find actual studies that demonstrate the value of this therapy, then you are free to discuss them. Until that time, don’t open new threads on this subject.

Moderator Warning

Part of the moderator instructions that you were given was to “Stop promoting untested treatments for coronavirus.” While you have not created new threads on the topic (which was the other part of the moderator instruction), you are clearly promoting this untested treatment.

As such, this is an official warning for failure to follow moderator instructions.

If you continue to promote these untested treatments, we will be forced to review your posting privileges here. Do not post about this again.

I think we can deal with this on a case-by-case basis without instituting a global topic ban.
