As a result, healthcare misinformation is one of the greatest dangers of the 21st Century. Pharma companies ought to consider the presented obstacles so as to overcome them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, more than 70% of U.S. news consumers demonstrated a clear concern towards \u201cfake news\u201d. These have been polarizing opinions and leading people into misleading perspectives. Presenting then, concern within the pharmaceutical industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, today we are exploring the dangers of misinformation and disinformation. Along with the impact they have on the healthcare industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, first, it is important to understand the differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:46px\">Misinformation VS. Disinformation &#8211; The Differences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Disinformation and misinformation are today&#8217;s buzzwords that are evermore listened to. Both present a threat to society and democracy, but mostly to health and safety. That is why it is important to know what they are, and the differences between them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Disinformation<\/strong> is the purposeful creation, presentation, and dissemination of untruthful content. It aims at deceiving the public for personal economic gain. For example, fake news is a way of disinformation. By polarizing society and opinions, these manipulate individuals\u2019 ideas towards a single, biased, stream of thought.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Misinformation<\/strong> is the unintentional spreading of false information. One that is often shared for the reader\u2019s belief in it. It implies blind trust in the content that is being consumed. These often do not display habits of checking the veracity of the information they access.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong>Did you know that \u2026 in 2021 48% of U.S. adults defended that the government should have in place regulations that restrict online false information? (<em>Pew Research Center<\/em>)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The U.S. government and private organizations have put into practice regulations, initiatives, and campaigns that aim at counteracting misinformation and disinformation. Some of these are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The <strong>Health Misinformation Act of 2021<\/strong> &#8211; is a bill that aims at amending the 1934 Act. It aims at making accountable those who create and disseminate untruthful information.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>FactCheck.org<\/strong> &#8211; demystifies misleading information and topics. By providing the reader with facts that prove the information.<\/li><li><strong>Google<\/strong> &#8211; change in algorithms to disadvantage websites that share misleading, non-factual information.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:46px\">The Dangers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Misinformation and disinformation are dangerous for their influence on the reader. They have a great detrimental impact on democracy and societal awareness, especially in healthcare.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Sensationalism&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Untruthful information uses sensationalism as a tool to foster an emotional connection. Motivating fear or compassion clouds the readers&#8217; memory. Therefore, manipulating perceptions and beliefs. And through this strong emotional connection, the reader feels compelled to share that same information. Then, strengthening the power of misleading content.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Digital features and reward systems<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Websites display features and reward systems that appeal to the readers\u2019 emotions. Through comment sections and other functions, these join people together for their belief in particular ideas. This further fosters the spread of misleading information and dangerous ideas that threaten the power of veracity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Search Engine Algorithms&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Online search engines work through the prioritization of websites that generate more traffic. Neglecting, in that way websites that offer fact-checked information. If you visit a website with misleading information, you are bound to receive similar suggestions. For that reason, you enter a filter bubble difficult to move away from.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:44px\">The influence&#8230;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Misinformation and disinformation have had a great impact on healthcare. This was heightened by the environment of fear lived during the pandemic. With COVID and vaccination came misinformation and disinformation. It reached all mediums of communication, namely those held on digital platforms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A study made during the pandemic has shown that people\u2019s exposure to COVID-related misinformation has harmed their willingness to take the vaccine. For instance, 39% of U.S. adults said they heard the vaccine should not be administered to pregnant women. Within these, 17% are sure this information is true (<em>KFF<\/em>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important that pharma companies know how to counteract the influence of misinformation. By turning it into an opportunity to engage with the target audience, while educating it with fact-checked information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:46px\">What can be done<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the power of misinformation and disinformation, U.S. readers (patients) are more aware of the importance of fact-checking practices. There are ways in which you can help them consume quality information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use your expertise and data, <\/strong>and include them on your website. As experts in different fields in Pharma and medicine, companies detain valuable information that could only be resourceful if shared with the target audience. So start by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Fact-checking your data and information &#8211; verify it is truthful;<\/li><li>Having your data and information peer-reviewed.

In other words, the first resource for readers to have access to. One way you can do this is by sharing your data and information through blog posts. In them you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Educate your audience on your services and products;<\/li><li>Educate your audience on topics of interest;<\/li><li>Generate new leads; and<\/li><li>Increase engagement through SEO.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:34px\">Want to take it a step further?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Fighting misinformation and disinformation is all about taking charge of the narrative.
