Online patient groups are where much cancer advice is exchanged. Fund and train moderators, with quick access to reliable evidence, to keep those spaces accurate and kind.
Facebook groups, forums and messaging groups are primary information sources for many patients and are where unproven therapies spread peer to peer. The proposal is a programme funding patient organisations to train volunteer moderators in evidence appraisal and compassionate correction, provide them with a rapid clinician back-channel and a curated evidence library, and measure the prevalence of unproven claims in moderated versus unmoderated groups.
