摘要

最近，随着全球社交媒体使用量的激增以及COVID-19大流行的进一步加剧，医疗错误信息（虚假的健康或医疗相关信息）的数量迅速增加。这可能会使更多人的生命受到威胁，因为错误信息是人们做出危险的健康选择、从事有害做法和拒绝有益健康治疗的一个经常被引用的原因。在本文中，我们探讨了驱动因素和后果，并在个人、教育和系统层面提出了一些策略，供医生指导和沟通订阅医疗错误信息的患者。

Clinical practice in an age of medical misinformation and conspiracy theories

Medical misinformation (false health or medical-related information) has seen a rapid increase in volume recently, with the global surge in social media usage and further exacerbation by the COVID-19 pandemic. This may put more lives at stake, as misinformation is an often-cited reason that people make dangerous health choices, engage in harmful practices and reject beneficial health treatments. In this article, we explore the drivers and consequences, as well as suggest several strategies at the personal, educational and systemic level, for physicians to guide and communicate with patients who subscribe to medical misinformation.
