For years, but especially since the pandemic, this page and many others in Science and elsewhere have been filled with lamentations about the spread of scientific misinformation—and hand wringing on how to prevent it.

Dangerous skepticism about the COVID-19 vaccine, for example, continues to stoke wider hesitancy to other vaccines, a disastrous consequence for public health.
