Harmless thought, but some conspiracy theories can be deadly

Like superstition in everyday life, science also has unfounded conspiracy theories, affecting human health, material and spirituality.

 

Conspiracy theory is defined as a way to explain political, economic and social problems, by assigning them to the secret plots of underground forces behind. These forces can be one or more individuals, or even governments.

The meteorite theory of theory divided the Earth.

According to political scientist Michael Barkun, conspiracy theory exists under the background of thinking that everything is set up, and works on three principles: nothing naturally happens, no What just looks like that, and everything is closely related.

. and medical conspiracy theories

During the past half century, conspiracy theory appears to be full of medicine, an area in which we all think it is logical and accurate.

Even a developed country like the US is still negatively affected by medical conspiracy theory.

In 2017, there was a measles outbreak in the state of Minnesota, USA, just because a part of the population believed conspiracy to not get vaccinated. As can be seen, even a developed country like the US is still negatively affected by medical conspiracy theory.

Here are some examples of conspiracy theory that are very popular around the world:

1. The doctor promotes immunization for children, although everyone knows that vaccination will cause autism.
2. Health professionals all know that mobile phones cause cancer but do not admit because large corporations do not allow it.
3. Fluid in water is a way for chemical companies to secretly dump toxic chemicals into the environment.

* Note: the above sentences are unfounded conspiracy, only illustrative.

Why is there the occurrence of these conspiracy theories?

This is a seemingly simple question, but the answer is extremely complex. Dr Morton Tavel, a renowned medical professor at Indiana University School of Medicine, said: "These medical conspiracy theories are often misconceptions, infected by some unknown group or group. personal or personal benefit ".

"These organizations often try to attack the scientific knowledge that people have recognized."

"Conspiracyists often think that those who don't believe them are stupid - and this makes them feel smarter than others," said Stuart Vyse, a psychologist. "This gives them a sense of initiative, if they believe they have the right answer while others don't."

Research shows that people who believe in medical conspiracy tend to ignore conventional medical treatments, to choose other avenues. They will not go to the doctor, do not use toothpaste, do not apply sunscreen to the sun, nor will they be vaccinated.

For example, in 2011, a study showed that up to 54% of colored Americans who test positive for HIV still think that AIDS is a form of genocide for blacks. They also refused to go for medical treatment, fearing that they had to be "white mice" for new drugs.

In a study published in PLoS One in 2014, researchers listed a list of conspiracy theories on immunization on a total of 89 parents in the UK. Research shows that people who believe in the conspiracy theory will often not get their children vaccinated.

If you want to believe in a conspiracy, it's fine, but be careful

It can be said, conspiracy theory can cause very bad effects on your health. This means that you should reconsider what you believe, read, or hear if it is truly reliable, reasonable and logical.
