Questions readers ask

How do you decide which topics to cover?

Most come from reader emails and from patterns we notice in public health data. If several readers ask about the same thing, it goes on the list.

How often do you publish new articles?

New pieces go up every week and land in the newsletter on the same schedule, so you're not left checking the site for updates.

What happens if you get something wrong?

Tell us and we'll check it. If a correction is needed, we fix it and date the change openly, and we aim to do that within 30 days of being told.

Who actually writes and reviews the articles?

Named staff writers draft every piece, and a second editor reviews facts and sources before publish. We're not funded by advertisers, so there's no product to favour.
