“疫苗有害论”的“后真理”建构

在媒体和网络所搭建起一个能诸诉个人情感的虚拟平台和空间中,"后真理"通过情感影响力来贬低客观事实,让科学的话语权与公信力逐渐被弱化,让科学共同体与大众之间出现了裂缝,取而代之的是伪科学之类的"劣币"开始流行。如果疫苗有害论之类的伪科学言论不能得到有效的遏制,越来越多的家长会出于情感原因而对下一代做出不可挽回错误。这不仅是个人选择问题,同时也是影响整个社会的健康和安全问题。

The Construction of “Post Truth” in the Vaccines Injury

Given a virtual platform and space built by the media and the Internet, in which people can express views with personal feelings, "post-truth", influenced by feelings, devalues objective facts and gradually weakens the right of speech and credibility of science. Worse still, the general public becomes suspicious of the scientific community. The "bad money" like pseudoscience, instead, becomes socially acceptable. If pseudoscientific remarks, just like the vaccine is deemed to be harmful, were not effectively eliminated, more and more parents would commit irretrievable blunders to the next generation out of affective reasons. It is not only a matter of individual preference, but also an issue of health and safety that concerns society as a whole.
