The broadcaster was issued a "strike" last Thursday, which prevents it from posting videos or live-streams for a week. Three strikes over a period of 90 days would result in a permanent removal of the channel.

該廣播公司上週四被「警告」，將阻止它張貼影片或直播一週。若在90天內收到3次警告則會導致頻道被永久移除。

A YouTube spokesperson did not disclose which videos by Sky News Australia had violated its policies, but said in a statement issued on Monday that "we don’t allow content that denies the existence of Covid-19 or that encourages people to use hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin to treat or prevent the virus."

YouTube發言人並未透露是哪部澳洲天空新聞的影片違反該平台的守則，但週一透過聲明表示，「我們不允許否認武漢肺炎存在，或鼓勵人們使用羥氯奎寧與艾弗麥克素治療及預防病毒的內容」。
