I've been following this. It was mentioned by Anthony Fauci in his JAMA interview this morning. The WHO is recommending against ibuprofen, but primarily out of caution. There is weak empirical support for the caution, but it doesn't look like a big deal; there are vastly more important things to worry about right now, but this is one of those things that spreads really fast through social media, probably largely because it's easy to understand.
