BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine

The pandemic has highlighted an increasingly important phenomenon of the past years: misinformation. This could range from the promotion of treatments supported by very low-quality evidence to claims of effectiveness of interventions that are either unsafe or proven ineffective. The role of opinion leaders, including healthcare professionals, politicians, academics and influencers, among others, seems to be more important than the pillars of EBM: evidence, expertise and values.

To help showcase this important work BMJ EBM is planning a collection focused on Addressing misinformation. We have extended the closing date for submissions to January 10th 2022.
