How misinformation endangers our progress against preventable diseases


Listen Later

Emergency physician Drew Remignanti discusses his article "A world without vaccines: What history teaches us about public health." In this conversation, Drew reflects on historical lessons from smallpox, polio, and measles to reveal what life looked like before modern immunization. He explores the dangers of misinformation, the importance of science-based health care guidance, and the global success stories that vaccination campaigns have produced. Drew also explains how confirmation bias and the spread of anti-vaccine sentiment threaten progress toward disease eradication. Listeners will gain insight into how to evaluate evidence critically, advocate for public health, and understand the human cost of vaccine hesitancy.
