Meet Evan "the bioethicist" Thornburg, an expert on misinformation, disinformation, and conspiracy theories, who has found notoriety on Tik Tok, sits down with us to talk about health literacy, scientism, the exclusionary elitism of the medical and scientific realms which gate-keeps information and contributes to the public's mistrust, and the difficulty of science to compete with the sheer volume, creativity and sensationalism behind disinformation in our current infodemic.
