View submission: COVID denialism and policy clarifications

It's clearly a less damaging statement than your example, but back then it could be argued I was posting misinformation that would lead to the deaths of medical staff due to lack of PPE.

I think recommending people to take extra precautions isn't bad, but telling people to take less precautions is. (For example telling people that they should wear masks outside, even though covid-19 wasn't really transmitted outside). But for example telling people they should stock up on random medicine or toilet paper is harmful.

I do think posts recommending people to stock up on PPE should be removed, since it is actually dangerous.
