High-Quality Internet Sources
Health information is the most frequent type of information sought on the Internet. Be sure that the health information sites you rely on are transparent (open) and honest about sponsorship and purpose. Sites should provide a clear statement of their information and publication sources, assure your privacy and protect your user data protection, and provide access to reliable research and up-to-date clinical knowledge. Accountability and accessibility are essential.
