Gilbert C FAURE's insight:
The topic addresses Fake news as a global problem, extracting material focusing on vaccinations, vaccination hesitancy and anti-vax attitudes. The subject is evolving constantly with health consequences all over the world.
Ir covers not only Fake News still thriving on the internet,
but also efforts of many (supranational bodies, scientific societies, researchers...) to improve health literacies of laypeople, and medical students on this sensitive topic...
Fake News related to Covid and Vaccinations slightly decreased compared to other topics such as ukrainian war, gaza war, and politics in USA even sports related informations... but the involvement of politicians in the topic very much increased !

Provides an overview of evidence-based strategies to address vaccine deniers in public, in clinical practice and in social situations. A strategy to help differentiate between vaccine deniers and simple vaccine refusers in a practice or clinic is provided.
Before he was confirmed, his first cousin Ambassador Caroline Kennedy wrote to several Congress members that they shouldnât approve his nomination, calling him "dangerous " & a âpredatorâ, and that he was âunqualifiedâ for the job of US Secretary of HHS
âHe lacks any relevant government, financial, management, or medical experience,â she said. âHis views on vaccines are dangerous and willfully misinformed.â
People tend to search for information from search engines like Google in biased ways, which can bias search engine output and, in turn, distort our beliefs.
This is called the ânarrow search effect,â and it was documented across 21 studies in this recent paper: https://lnkd.in/ehQ2DJ-d
Other similar work has found that searching Google for misinformation can actually increase belief in misinformation, since Google often returns results that support the misinformation people search for: https://lnkd.in/eCyT_hGJ
These dynamics may become particularly pronounced with generative AI, which can be âsycophantic,â or excessively agreeable (see our research on sycophancy here: https://lnkd.in/er3Kb97X)Â
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WFLA) - As Gov. Ron DeSantis pushes for the legislature to create a medical freedom bill package for next session, one Tampa Bay lawmaker is hoping to answer that call by expanding parental rights and vaccine exemptions with new legislation. State Rep. Jeff Holcomb (R-Spring Hill) shared with 8 On Your Side that [...]
 Maternal vaccination matters, yet many pregnant women feel uncertain about vaccine safety, effectiveness, and how maternal vaccines benefit their babies. This VCP study shows trust, information quality, and provider engagement are key to improving uptake.
While we are still waiting for Physicians for Informed Consent to present any evidence that any of their claims are true, be reminded that, while informed consent matters, it should be based on informed content. This means âclear, referenced informationâ which has to include both sides of the ledger: disease burden + vaccine benefits and risks, with denominators and uncertainty. If Physicians for Informed Consent wants to be a true trust-builder, they should publish methods, update pages when evidence changes, and avoid cherry-picking baseline windows that make vaccines look unnecessary. So far they d
Impact of human papillomavirus vaccines in the reduction of infection, precursor lesions, and cervical cancer: This review provides updated evidence on the efficacy, effectiveness, and health impact of HPV vaccines by presenting substantially longer follow-up periods than previous reviews and data from countries worldwide. Post-licensure studies of HPV vaccines have reported high efficacy, effectiveness, and health impact across settings and age groups. Studies emphasize vaccination in younger age groups. These findings may inform future discussions about HPV vaccination strategies. https://lnkd.in/drRHCgxs
Shared decision making ? A new pseudo-concept for anti-vaxxers ? Like if, when you are going to the emergency room, you are likely to do so. As a patient, you have non of the expertise to do so. Do you think that as a parent you are fully equipped to do so ? Probably even less if your sources of information are from anti-vaccine groupsâŠ
The idea that sanitation alone can eliminate diphtheria is a myth; while good hygiene (clean water, handwashing) reduces spread by making transmission harder, it's not a substitute for vaccination, as diphtheria spreads through respiratory droplets and contaminated items, and unvaccinated people remain vulnerable, with outbreaks returning when vaccination drops. Vaccines train the immune system to fight the bacteria, which good hygiene doesn't do, making vaccination the best defense against this airborne bacterial infection. But it is not the first time that Physicians for Informed Consent is pushing such lieâŠWhile sanitation improves living conditions, it doesn't provide the specific immunity (antibodies) that vaccines create against the Corynebacterium diphtheriae bacteria, according to the National Institutes of Health. Poor sanitation, overcrowding, and lack of vaccination are major risk factors, showing both hygiene and vaccines are needed. But misinformation is a vector of vaccine hesitancy and transmission of diphtheria as wellâŠ
2025 RECAP: From installing an anti-vax conspiracy theorist as our nationâs top health care official to taking an axe to lifesaving biomedical research, the Trump administration has systematically put politics over science.
