Abstract
Health misinformation, while always a concern, saw an increase in abundance during the pandemic, making it difficult to discern between what is true and what is not. Hosted by the Network of the National Library of Medicine, this virtual symposium was created to provide attendees information on how to distinguish between types of misinformation, describe current research, identify resources and tools to combat misinformation, and to explore programs, projects, and practices related to health misinformation in communities. Objectives include ways of discerning between various categories of misinformation, delving into contemporary research endeavors dedicated to health misinformation, proficiently recognizing and applying resources and tools for mitigating health misinformation, and exploring an array of community-oriented programs, projects, and practices targeting the issue of health misinformation.
