The importance of evidence in evidence-base care
Keywords:
independent scientists, perpetuate falsehoods, contradict fact-based interventionsAbstract
In an era where scientific discovery has exploded, and where rigorous quality assurance and quality control mechanisms are applied in the discovery of knowledge, we still face many challenges from people who would deliberately provoke and perpetuate falsehoods to circumvent or even contradict fact-based interventions and policies. This is not a matter of mere scientific hesitancy which is ameliorated by sharing of knowledge and information, but a clear and purposeful opposition to fact. The reasons for this remain largely unclear, but to the scientific community it becomes a daily struggle to advocate for what is correct and just.
