      1. You may be reading about how only 2 women were awarded Nobel prizes this year. Not true. Actually, Olga Tokarczuk received the 2018 award for literature. And Duflo's economics prize is not formally a Nobel prize. The total number of female Nobel prize winners in 2019 is zero.

    Those in the know will of course remember that the 2018 Nobel Prize in literature was announced this year since it was suspended last year due to a sexual assault scandal. theguardian.com/books/2019/oct/10/nobel-prize-for-literature-to-be-awarded-twice-after-sexual-assault-scandal
