How to tell if doctors and health influencers on social media are AI-generated | Deception Decoded University of Alberta misinformation expert Timothy Caulfield on how tough it is to tell AI-generated doctors and health influencers apart from real ones.

AI generated health influencers are more common.

Much of what they push is harmful BS, but they look ridiculously convincing.

My take on this problem on CTV News: www.ctvnews.ca/video/decept...

Advancing Microbial Solutions That Enhance Sustainable Approaches to Environmental Challenges
Advancing Microbial Solutions That Enhance Sustainable Approaches to Environmental Challenges YouTube video by American Society for Microbiology

Environmental microbiology connects climate change, the bioeconomy, and One Healthβ€”but not in the way most people think. Microbes control carbon, enable sustainable technologies, and shape health across ecosystems. Brian Badgley, Ph.D., explains why that matters now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fXq...

It was quite shocking when I listened to some people in the community on my return to Australia. People openly denying value of vaccines & not understanding they are putting others at risk.

Scalds & burns can happen in an instant. We treat about 325 pediatric burns per year in the Adele Hall ED & see 1,300+ burn clinic appointments annually. Simple steps - like turning pot handles inward and testing bath water - can make a big difference in keeping kids safe. https://cmkc.link/3V2q28O

The worst is that it is not limited to the US 😭. And on top of it correlates with general anti-science sentiment. What makes me really mad is that the same people want better healthcare & that is only possible with better science.

Let's talk about #polio!

The virus can invade our nervous system and cause paralysis in just hours. Remember: 1 in 200 cases leads to irreversible paralysis (usually in the legs). However, thanks to vaccines polio can be prevented! #VaccinesWork

Stay informed and protect yourself and loved ones!

I was going to say IV 😁. I have seen this in patients with IV inserted in the palm. Combine with poor veins & blood thinners it isn't pretty or healthy.
