Twelve studies relied on public health organizations as sources for verifying health misinformation, including the World Health Organization (Barua et al, 2020;Lee et al, 2020;Roozenbeek et al, 2020, study 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (Wang, 2021), the American Cancer Society and National Cancer Institute (Tan et al, 2015), and general health organizations (Loomba et al, 2021, study 1 and 2; Neely et al, 2021).
