Description

To begin with with remember Jane Goodall and we mark that the Dutch Master Kackadoris Award has been awarded to the VU University of Amsterdam – serves them right! In TWISH we hear about the adoption of the Gregorian calendar in 1582 (in some places much later!) and then, we dig into the news:

• INTERNATIONAL: Shingles vaccination associated with lower risk of dementia
• VATICAN: Pope Leo stands up for science and humanity
• GERMANY / DENMARK / SWEDEN / EU: Drones, drones, drones
• UK: Nigel F Farage spreads nonsense as hardcore as his American counterpart
• UK: Cut your energy bills by a third with a gadget?
• INTERNATIONAL: Here’s the Snopes app!

The Really Wrong Award goes to Meta and the EU for their inability to handle political ads.

Enjoy!
