In this episode of “What's Crap on WhatsApp?”, we look at four claims doing the rounds:

Is aluminium in vaccines or aluminium foil bad for your health? No, these claims are false. https://bit.ly/aluminium_health

Does this image show a mobile phone factory in Zambia? No, it was made using artificial intelligence. https://bit.ly/phone_factory

This widely-shared photo shows the famous Hoover dam in the US, not the Nandoni dam in South Africa’s Limpopo province. https://bit.ly/nandoni_dam
