In an article at AL.com, Nicole K. Reh, who is on the path to earning a medical degree, writes about how “social” media is endangering persons’ health; she focuses on the recent measles outbreaks and the anti-VAXX lies that have fueled them.

One interesting frightening statistic that she cites particularly caught my eye:

A 2024 Stanford study found that 49% of TikTok health videos were inaccurate, and 14% were potentially harmful.

The entire piece is worth a read, and, remember, “social” media isn’t.
