This grant initiative seeks to combat the pervasive issue of health-related misinformation and disinformation, particularly its detrimental effects on populations experiencing health disparities. The primary goal is twofold: first, to thoroughly investigate and comprehend the fundamental mechanisms that contribute to the spread and impact of such misinformation within these vulnerable communities. This involves exploring psychological, social, and systemic factors. Second, the grant aims to develop, test, and implement effective interventions designed to directly address and significantly mitigate the adverse consequences of health-related falsehoods. Ultimately, this effort will foster improved health outcomes and reduce existing health inequalities by empowering individuals with accurate information and robust protective strategies.
