COVID-19 misinformation and incomplete information has been widespread during this pandemic. Roger Seheult, MD of https://www.medcram.com highlights "DISCERN" a peer-reviewed and validated research tool used to assess the quality of information. This tool can be applied to videos on YouTube and other internet sources. Although a recent journal article concluded that most coronavirus videos on YouTube were poor quality information (in particular from news outlets as a category), it highlighted the utility of the DISCERN tool to find high-quality information sources (This video was recorded June 29, 2020).
