There's obviously a typo in Ryan's wager. I'm guessing his actual wager was 4600. --Bob

This game is a draw for the Weak Form of Shore's Conjecture. The second-place player bet "big." --Bob

Ryan remembered his glasses for the return trip and he won again. Mayim always has her variety of specs on.

The challengers went 0/3 on DDs and wagers did not seem to acknowledge playing a 6xer or the box value of the clues.

Wanting to play the precall game even in a broad category I wrote Pasteur and Roentgen when I saw the category.

The clue had me looking for a miss as I had to swat away Mari's incorrect guess, Alzheimer's to fit disease and thinking I might want to go with something with Vietnam in the wording.

With more of a guess than knowledge I sniffed out what the writers wanted and wrote the right thing. Nothing wrong with a little luck on a Monday.

For 7xers Ryan is between Brian's 163,904 and Courtney's 118,558.

Ryan tried to get to 22600 with his FJ! wager while Mari had a possible 26600. Ryan's wagering strategy is working so far and it will be a big ouch if he leads, get the FJ! clue right and loses because he does not cover 2nd's maximum.

I'm curious how the clue could be read to avoid interpreting "COVID" as a correct response, other than arguing that the 300,000 number must be way too low for long COVID. More than 140 million Americans had gotten COVID-19 as of the time of taping.
The incidence of post-COVID syndrome is estimated at 10-35%. I would hypothesize, although can't find by Googling, that evidence exists that 65+ individuals are the majority of post-COVID syndrome sufferers.

I believe the group most afflicted by long-Covid is actually more of a middle-age range. I think the question is poorly worded and lacks enough detail to be able to pin down well, but I'm pretty sure it is meaning to say the US has about 300,000 remaining SURVIVORS of the disease, not 300k afflicted with post-[answer] syndrome. The vast majority being over 65 obviously because almost nobody in the US has gotten it in decades. There are way more than 300,000 covid survivors of course, and far more with long-covid as well.

Again, I think it's not a great clue. Even with an extensive medical background I might have had to really work this question out if not for the fact that my dad had this. I got it instantly, but I believe mostly through that.

Oh, wow, I see what you mean, and yes, that is poor clue wording.

What is the rate of post [correct response] syndrome? Not closer to 100% for survivors? I never heard anyone remark they had it, and made a full recovery.

I think it's around 25-50% or something, but it's really hard to quantify because we have no definitive proof it even is the cause. There is just a large correlation between issues that can suddenly surface often decades after surviving polio. My dad contracted polio at 8 and made a full recovery, leading a completely normal asymptomatic life until around 50 when he had a host of muscle problems/chronic fatigue like symptoms, and eventually got Parkinson's disease by his late 50's, which we strongly feel was correlated as well.

25/1, 23/2 good boards today. 8-)
trash: clear cutting, castle cleats, Air Force (c'mon, they spotted you Falcons!). more trash: Gila, Hobson's
:D :D :D :( for betting clues. Isn't Art Deco NYC building a Pavlov for the Chrysler? And how do you not get Baghdad when spotted "ad"? :o
Thanks for the commentary on FJ!, I'll chalk that up to being a garbage clue. :x

From two different IP addresses a correction suggestion has come in that the game was taped Thursday, March 31st, so I've marked the game that way. A 30-day break gave Ryan time to prepare while he just winged it without much prep the first go-around.

I had no idea and said retirement. No, it isn’t a disease, but certainly people have issues adjusting from the work world to retirement that could cause mental anguish.
