Why Americans Have Stopped Believing Medical Headlines—And What It Would Take to Change That

Trust in medical and health research among American adults has declined sharply over the past decade, driven not by a rejection of science itself but by repeated exposure to contradictory headlines, sensationalized reporting, and the algorithmic amplification of misinformation on social media. Rebuilding that trust requires more than better communication from researchers—it demands that everyday readers develop a working literacy in how scientific evidence is actually produced and evaluated.
