Beyond Clinical Medicine Episode 29: Gaining Trusted Information for the COVID-19 Pandemic

Misinformation has raged during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, continuous changes to public health guidance have made it increasingly difficult to keep up with current and trusted advice on how to navigate the pandemic. In this episode of Beyond Clinical Medicine, Dr. David Hogan gains insight into the topic with Dr. Meg FitzGerald an adjunct associate professor with the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and a private equity investor. Dr. FitzGerald discusses how to know an information source can be trusted and why it’s so important for public health entities to be consistent and clear in their communication.
