WHO continues to fight against misinformation and disinformation—a great challenge to global health. Governments, health agencies, and partners need to safeguard public trust by responding to misinformation and disinformation directly and effectively.
Battling misinformation and disinformation naccurate information about diseases, treatments and vaccines undermines trust in science and public health. It threatens global health by distorting public perception and eroding confidence in evidence-based policies. During emergencies and conflicts, misinformation exacerbates health crises by fostering confusion and fear and diverting resources from a coordinated response. This erosion of public trust is leaving populations vulnerable to preventable diseases and fueling inequities.
