If you were seeking reliable scientific or medical information, where would you turn?
According to a study by the Pew Research Center, about two thirds of Americans might turn to social media. Couple that fact with the results of a study conducted by computer scientists at Columbia University: well over half of social media users repost links to scientific articles without reading them first. Social media platforms (most notoriously, Facebook) have become a space for people to share and spread misinformation, with a large audience present to consume it. Even with credible sources made easily accessible, adverse factors such as limited health messaging and language barriers are managing to keep a large demographic of people in the dark.
On this podcast, HealthCetera correspondent and public health nurse Barbara Glickstein,MPH, MS, RN, hosts Wanda Montalvo, PhD, RN, FAAN, Senior Fellow and Team leader for Public Health Integration and Innovation at the National Association of Community Health Centers, for a conversation about unreliably sourced medical misinformation and the sources patients and providers should utilize to keep themselves and others correctly informed.
