💨 Abstract

Top doctors warn that inaccurate cancer information online is leading patients to reject effective treatments, often with fatal consequences. A study found most cancer-related videos on YouTube and TikTok contain misinformation, causing patients to follow dangerous diets or unproven drugs, and spreading myths about cancer causes. Experts urge the public to verify information from reliable sources and encourage more medical professionals to engage on social media to clarify accurate information.
