“…I n 2017, the Trump administration rolled back restrictions on patient cost sharing for contraception-related services established by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2012. In contrast to language included in the administration's ruling and based on evidence generated by decades of clinical and epidemiological studies, 1 there is widespread acceptance that contraception use effectively prevents pregnancy and is a high-value service for reproductive-aged women. As policymakers continue to consider revising aspects of the ACA, including other limits on patient cost sharing, it is crucial to understand the performance of innovative aspects of this policy.…”

“…Exploiting vaccine hesitancy is now part of the arsenal of populist political discourse, with government-sponsored Russian Twitter trolls seeding debate to undermine the 2016 U.S. elections (Broniatowski et al, 2020) and Polish right-wing politicians aligning with anti-vaccine activists as they construct a nationalist populist narrative (Żuk et al, 2019). In the United States, politicians on the right, including the former U.S. president Donald Trump, have spread misinformation about oral contraceptives to attack the Affordable Care Act (Hogue et al, 2017), vaccines (Mahoney et al, 2015), and the emergence of COVID-19 and possible treatments (Jaiswal et al, 2020).…”

Research on health misinformation has grown rapidly as concerns about the potential harmful effects of health misinformation on individuals and society intensify amid a “post-truth” era. In this chapter, we provide a broad overview of current research and evidence concerning the many facets of health misinformation, including its sources, prevalence, characteristics (both content and diffusion features), impact, and mitigation. We conclude that health misinformation originates from many sources, most notably mass and social media; is fairly prevalent, both ininterpersonal and mediated settings; and tends to feature negative sentiments, anecdotal evidence, and anti-science narratives. Although there is no conclusive evidence that health misinformation spreads more broadly than scientific information, health misinformation reliably leads to misperceptions on health issues. Efforts to mitigate the impact of health misinformation show early promise in correcting misperceptions. We offer several directions for future research.
