"YouTube Enhances First-Aid Video Accessibility for Emergency Situations"

YouTube will now promote step-by-step first aid videos made by hospitals and trustworthy health organizations at the top of search results for acute health emergencies including bleeding, choking, heart attacks, seizures, and opioid overdoses. The new feature, known as First Aid Information Shelves, aims to provide critical life-saving knowledge and limit the spread of health misinformation, with videos created by Mass General Brigham, the Mexican Red Cross, and the American Heart Association. This move could make YouTube a more reliable tool in a medical emergency, and many of the videos are available in English and Spanish, with support for other languages planned for the future.
