Abstract

The article focuses on the rise of the medical freedom movement in the U.S., which promotes unscientific and sometimes dangerous health practices while rejecting government and expert guidance. It highlights how this movement has gained political influence, spread misinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic, and fueled distrust in public health and scientific institutions.
