Google recently blocked advertisements around COVID19
and related issues. Would you please at least look it up before making this kind of assumptions?

- the_duke 7y ago> Google recently blocked advertisements around COVID19 I hadn't seen that, thanks for pointing it out. There are still ads for terms like "breathing mask" though, so it could probably be circumvented to some extent. But that's to be expected and probably unavoidable. Especially in light of these efforts, it still seems weird to me though to encourage institutions to use ads for information.
