Hi readers, I’m still recovering from Covid (so frustrating!), so I want to shine a spotlight on Risk Musings posts that are aging well so far. I say so far because things change, and I could end up totally embarrassed about how wrong these posts turn out! But as of today, they’re looking pretty good and were a bit ahead of the crowd.
You still have Covid?! Crap. Covid needs a nick name. We can’t call it the Big C— that’s taken—Cancer. It’s not 19 anymore. Probably Covid 49. It is a novel virus. The Novel? That’s insulting to fiction. The Big N? That could work. Either way, sending healing thoughts. Hope you’re taking zinc and C.
The Big CV? ;-) I'm taking Umcka, zinc, C, quercetin, melatonin, D, all the stuff. That's what's so frustrating: those things help with common colds and can basically sideline them. That.... doesn't work with Covid. Too contagious and too quick. Like the road-runner of diseases.
Stephanie, it's impressive to see how your Risk Musings posts are aging so well, even as you've been dealing with the challenges of recovering from Covid. Here's to a quick and full recovery, and I look forward to more of your forward-thinking takes in the future. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise!
Well it looks like there are some posts to revisit. I am relieved because much of your writing has struck me very positively when first posted. It's cool to have a whole series of posts you are proud of looking back.
(There's also one that literally no one liked, which makes me sad because I still think it was pretty good, but I won't link it here because it had its chance.)
This is wonderful. You’re a Risk Psychic. Hehehe.

Dang. Yeah, you're taking the best concoction. Hope you're on the mend.

Thanks, Winston! I appreciate the well-wishes.

Yeah, I'm happy with this bunch (and also with most of the evergreen ones). There's one definite prediction dud (this one: https://riskmusings.substack.com/p/lets-talk-about-monkeypox), but otherwise it's looking pretty good.
