Benefits and Pitfalls of Debunking Interventions to Counter mRNA Vaccination Misinformation During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Philipp Schmid et al.

Summary: Misinformation about mRNA vaccines is hindering the global fight against COVID-19. Text-based refutations have been used as a countermeasure, effectively reducing belief in misinformation. However, a follow-up study questions the long-lasting effects of these debunking efforts and highlights unintended consequences such as limited impact on intentions, backfire effects among religious groups, and biased judgments due to omission of vaccine side effects.

Sahil Loomba et al.

Summary: Recent online misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines has been found to decrease intent to vaccinate among adults in the UK and the USA, particularly among those who were initially willing to get vaccinated.

Long-Term Effectiveness of Inoculation Against Misinformation: Three Longitudinal Experiments

Rakoen Maertens et al.

Summary: This study examines the long-term effectiveness of active psychological inoculation in building resistance against misinformation and found that it can significantly reduce participants' trust in fake news, lasting for at least 3 months. However, without regular testing, the long-term effect declined over a 2-month period, and it was determined that the effect was not due to item-response memorization or the fake-to-real ratio.

Addressing COVID-19 Misinformation on Social Media Preemptively and Responsively

Emily K. Vraga et al.

Summary: Efforts to address misinformation on social media, especially regarding COVID-19, have shown that shareable infographics designed by the WHO can effectively reduce misperceptions about the science of the virus. These effects can persist for at least a week after exposure, regardless of placement or source of the graphic. Health organizations should continue creating and promoting such graphics to improve public knowledge.
