We all need Reliable, Accurate and trustworthy health information.
You hear and read health advice all the time—from friends, online sources, radio, TV, and more. How do you know what health information you can trust?
Not everything on the internet is accurate, reliable, trustworthy and up to date. Anyone can post information and no-one is responsible for checking accuracy or removing out of date information.
