According to a recent Forbes article, FDA Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock, has stated that the spread of misinformation is linked to lower life expectancy in the United States. She made the comments in a recent interview, noting that people who believe in conspiracy theories or misinformation regarding vaccines, medical treatments, and other health-related issues are less likely to seek medical care or follow medical advice. This can lead to more severe health outcomes and lower life expectancy overall.
