Last month Twitter announced that they won’t be allowing any advertisement which mentions coronavirus or COVID-19. However, recently Twitter revised its policy and now allowing some of the advertisers to promote tweets that contain COVID-19 related information. But, the advertisement should be based on the utility of the products. Twitter said that because of their changing advertisement policy; they are now allowing some useful virus advertisements.

So, it is crucial to help them.
Whatever Twitter is doing seems logical because their initiative is helping not only them but also a lot of other people, businesses and the world as a whole.
