The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM
“That they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. “They are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”

In 1846, a doctor proved handwashing could save lives. He was mocked by the medical establishment, lost his job, and was eventually committed to an asylum. Shortly after, he was beaten to death by attendants while trying to escape. In some ways, medicine is still kind of like this. See why:
