Journal of the Academy of Public Health

Last updated

Origin

The journal was launched on 5 February 2025 with the intention of disrupting conventional academic publishing. Its founders are associated with anti-establishment medical views and its editorial board includes people associated with misinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic. [2]

Reaction

Writing for Science-Based Medicine , Jonathan Howard said the journal's founders were "misinformation superspreaders" and that it was likely to prove a vehicle for "propaganda masquerading as science to further the MAGA/MAHA political agenda". [3]
