Hi all, I have been asked to put together some information for the public re information on health issues - for example media stories etc, and basically how they assess their validity. I can tell them how to do this on the internet, but how do I tell them which news stories to believe...apart from "if it's the News of the World/Sunday Sport/Daily Mail etc. take with a pinch of salt?!". I'm trying to cover every angle and not everyone has easy access to the internet or local library to double check these things, so apart from calling an NHS helpline has anyone any other useful suggestions please ? Hopeful thanks in advance best Barbara Barbara Norrey Library Services Manager Essex Public Health Resource Unit (EPHRU) 8 Collingwood Road, Witham, Essex CM8 2TT Tel: 01376 302268 www.ephru.nhs.uk
