Save lives and improve public health by countering misinformation 

In Dead Wrong: Diagnosing and Treating Healthcare’s Misinformation Illness, a team of health misinformation experts delivers a first-hand account of the dangers posed by false narratives and snake oil in the face of deadly healthcare crises, like the COVID-19 pandemic. In the book, you’ll explore the challenges facing those who fight to restore truth to a place of primacy in the United States healthcare system, the strategies they use, and the lessons you can draw from their real-world stories. 

In this revised edition you’ll learn:



How misinformation threatens organizational revenues, reputation, and patient health
How to leverage existing systems to combat misinformation while meeting quality measures and boosting patient acquisition
How to implement strategies for systemic change through new quality measures, research initiatives, and elevating healthcare professionals as authoritative voices for truth

Based on feedback from leading healthcare executives, the book provides clearer frameworks for connecting anti-misinformation efforts to revenue generation and cost savings, offering practical pathways for healthcare leaders to protect both patient welfare and organizational sustainability in an era where scientific truth and institutional trust face unprecedented challenges.

Perfect for clinicians, public health leaders, health-tech leaders, and health marketers, Dead Wrong will also earn a place in the libraries of media professionals and community leaders with an interest in keeping the American public healthy and vibrant.
