Abstract
Misinformation in the digital era has the potential to undermine the efforts of health authorities and professionals to keep
the public informed. This is evident in the slew of misinformation around COVID-19 prevention, treatments and vaccines.
Mis- and disinformation in the field of allergies is also prevalent. The consequences include harm to the public and
increased healthcare costs.
