At least in my feed, I'd argue what's worse is the surprising frequency with which medical doctors engage in credential-backed sensationalism, sometimes even manufacturing outright misinformation, all for the sake of views. TikTok and platforms like it have birthed a disturbing little army of Dr. Oz wannabes.
