YouTube's unstated assumption is that people in general are not smart enough to deal with unsubstantiated claims. Offensive though it may sound, that's true else the world would have erupted in laughter if someone suggested injecting disinfectant in response to a disease.

But use of the word 'cure' is a step too far.
