On another, more positive side,&nbsp;Michael Frass‘ terrible study claiming that homeopathy can help in cancer treatment&nbsp;finally has been retracted!&nbsp;Also, get your&nbsp;flu vaccines, everyone.In&nbsp;TWISH&nbsp;we hear how&nbsp;António Egas Moniz&nbsp;invented lobotomy and was awarded one of the most&nbsp;controversial Nobel prizes&nbsp;for it, but also why it cannot be retracted. Then, we go to the news:<ul><li>SWEDEN: People die of breast cancer after choosing alternative treatments</li><li>EUROPE: Eurobarometer Survey 2025: science, skepticism, and the battle against misinformation</li><li>INTERNATIONAL: Freebirthing is a deadly scam and a grift</li><li>HUNGARY: Political ads on Google and Facebook are over – or are they?</li></ul>The&nbsp;Really Wrong Award&nbsp;goes to&nbsp;Steiner schools, that thankfully are in decline.
