Cancer-related discussions on social media provide an important space for information exchange and peer support, but also facilitate the spread of misinformation that may influence prevention, screening, and treatment decisions. Existing research on cancer misinformation often relies on narrow definitions, small-scale datasets, or binary labeling frameworks.
The rapid spread of false and misleading health information through digital platforms has become a major public health challenge, particularly during infectious disease outbreaks where delayed verification can influence public behaviour and hinder effective disease control. Although recent advances in automated health misinformation detection have shown encouraging results, most existing approaches rely heavily on global biomedical resources and often fail to capture the local context needed to verify claims in developing countries.
