According to reports, YouTube is considering eliminating all sermons and prayers by pastors saying only prayer, not medication, can treat chronic illnesses such as cancer and AIDS.
According to the post, the social network claimed, "In the coming days and weeks, we will remove all videos that explain about cancer treatment that are not true and mislead patients by causing them not to seek treatment."
According to Taifa Leo, some films advise cancer patients to utilize garlic or consume foods high in vitamin C instead of undergoing radiation, which employs a modern machine to emit X-rays to destroy cancer-spreading cells.
"We will also set an age restriction or have a panel of people who will highlight the video content to complement the existing message," the newspaper quoted YouTube as saying.

David Owuor, a preacher who identifies himself as a prophet of God, claimed to have healed numerous people during a healing prayer tour in the vast Rift Valley region in recent months.
According to the senate committee investigating the Shakahola forest genocide, several people have come forward to say they obtained healing through the controversial pastor's programs.
Dr Toromo Kochei, the Rift Valley regional coordinator for the National AIDS Control Program (NASCOP), informed the committee that, acting on behalf of NASCOP, he thoroughly researched patients who claimed to be healed and discovered that they were entirely recovered.
He stated that tales of miraculously healed patients are not frivolous, and he gave the committee at least three names of AIDS patients who claimed to have been cured by faith.
Furthermore, the government made public last week, without consulting Ezekiel Odero, a list of other churches whose licenses had been revoked, including those of the problematic pastor Paul Mackenzie.
