Fake News and Vaccinations Bobcatsss 2020

Point of view of an Immunologist/curator in 2020

Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

This topic became a research action project at CREM (Centre de Recherche sur les médiations)

Ir covers not only Fake News still thriving on the internet,

but also efforts of many (supranational bodies, scientific societies, researchers...) to improve health literacies of laypeople, and medical students on this sensitive topic...

The topic addresses Fake news as a global problem, extracting material focusing on vaccinations, vaccination hesitancy and anti-vax attitudes. The subject is evolving constantly with health consequences all over the world.

 

Published papers related to thissubject are also posted.

https://www.scoop.it/topic/assim-actualites/?&tag=article+scientifique

 

Fake News related to Covid and vaccinations slightly decreased compared to other topics such as ukrainian war, gaza war, even sports related informations...

but the diffusion of discussions on remains steady all over the world, particularly on social networks in France and elsewhere!

 

Unfortunately, as Jonathan Swift so eloquently said: Reasoning will never make a man correct an ill opinion, which by reasoning he never acquired.

Why we can’t agree about vaccines | Bernice Hausman | TEDxPSU

NOTE: The ideas in this talk are philosophical and based in social analysis. They do not necessarily reflect Dr. Hausman's personal practices and should not be interpreted as medical guidance. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers.

More information about the speaker’s work can be found here:

Vaccination choices divide individuals and communities in pluralist societies. In this provocative talk, Prof. Bernice Hausman explores vaccination controversy and the layers of meaning within it. She addresses philosophical disagreements about personal and public health, the distracting problem of misinformation, questions about responsibility toward vulnerable others, and the role of illness in being human. By examining the multiple cultural meanings of vaccination and illness, she shows that the way forward is not through science but through understanding our differences.

Bernice L. Hausman is the Garner James Cline Professor of Humanities in Medicine and Chair of the Department of Humanities at Penn State College of Medicine. Prior to her appointment at Penn State, she spent twenty-three years in the Department of English at Virginia Tech. Dr. Hausman has a bachelor’s degree in Literature from Yale University and a doctoral degree in Feminist Studies and Critical Theory from the University of Iowa. She is an internationally recognized expert on medicine and culture, with expertise in breastfeeding and motherhood, transgender history, and vaccination controversy. She is the author of four single-authored books and numerous peer-reviewed scholarly articles. Her most recent book, Anti/Vax: Reframing the Vaccination Controversy (Cornell, 2019), challenges the public to understand vaccine dissent as a persistent and culturally meaningful aspect of modern societies. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Illegal schools in the United Kingdom

Illegal schools in the United Kingdom | Actualités "Fake News and Vaccinations" | Scoop.it
Illegal schools are British full-time education institutions which are not registered with the Department for Education. UK regulation requires schools to be registered if five or more children attend for all or substantially all of their education.
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the antivax movement, under the leadership of a self-described peace constable named Olli Riddett, who operates a registered preschool in a village in Cornwall, started pulling their kids out of mainstream education and setting-up illegal schools, under the mistaken belief they were exempted them from British law under sovereign citizen ideology.[39]
