Neil Young's music will be removed from Spotify at his request, following the veteran rock star's protest over the streaming service airing a popular podcast that featured a figure criticized for spreading COVID misinformation.
Congress is considering a Platform Transparency and Accountability Act with a similar goal at the federal level, Pan said, but he wants California to take the lead. Dr. Nick Sawyer, an emergency room doctor with the advocacy group No License for Disinformation, said Low's bill is aimed at"a very small number of very well-coordinated, well-funded and very, very active minority of physicians who are spreading the type of misinformation that is not nuanced at all."
The California Medical Association hasn't taken a position on Low's bill. But the association's president, Dr. Robert E. Wailes, said in a statement that misinformation has prolonged the pandemic,"making the work of our frontline health care workers more difficult and dangerous while harming community health."
"Medicine obviously evolves over time, and we understand that," Sawyer said,"but many of the lies and the rhetoric that we hear coming out of these physicians are just simply not true." She added:"I cannot think of another industry that thinks that not only do they not have to identify the harm caused by their products but also tries to actively stop others from testing it."
