You know the type...the person who Googles every time they get the sniffles or feel the slightest bit under the weather. Well, that plan is ill-advised. It can yield reams of misinformation and all manner of (potentially harmful) misdiagnoses...as any of my friends in healthcare know. The Flemish government bought Google AdWords for the top 100 symptoms. Now, when people search Google about their ailments, the top result reads, Dont Google it, check a reliable source, and clicks through to the Gezondheid en Wetenschap (Health and Science) website. Check out this amusing minute-long promotional clip below, featuring hair loss, a bloody nose, gangrenous finger and festering boils. I feel better already!
