Misinformation is everywhere, and relating to science is no different. We discuss how science is a social construct and how this opens it up to being primary sources of misinformation. Importantly, we discuss how to try and protect yourself from these traps. "When genuine benefit exists for an intervention, it easily withstands critical appraisal. No one debates the value of antibiotics for bacterial infection" (Mandrola et al, 2019) Please note, this podcast does not constitute medical advice.
