Every Swede has celebrated Valborg (Walpurgis / Walpurga) this week although no one really knows why, and András reports from Sicily on volcanic activities. In TWISH we hear about Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a theologian so controversial that popes nowadays still cannot agree on what to think of him. Then it’s time for this week’s news:

• INTERNATIONAL: How local communities shaped ‘Cranky Uncle Vaccine’ game
• SWEDEN / UK: Computer game in school made students better at detecting fake news
• UK: The role of religion in COVID-19 vaccine uptake
• UK: SCAM diet almost killed a former model
• EU: Investigations of misinformation on Meta platforms ahead of June EP elections

Vaccination efforts have saved over 150 million lives over the last 50 years, and therefore Maurice Hilleman gets a Really Right Award as a representative of those who dedicate their lives to the cause.

Enjoy!
