Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Medicine) for Monday, May 23, 2022 (Season 38, Game 181):
Post-this disease syndrome affects many survivors, of which the U.S. is estimated to have 300,000, the vast majority over 65
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Jodi Harris, a content strategist from Culver City, California
Mari Chao, a writing center coordinator from Orlando, Florida
Ryan Long, a rideshare driver from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (6-day total: $131,801)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Philly rideshare driver Ryan Long has entered superchampion territory with his sixth win in yesterday’s game. One thing that will aid him in his attempt to get win number seven: he has his glasses today; he didn’t have those for his first six games! Will the glasses be good luck for Ryan, or will Mari or Jodi become champion after today’s game?
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is polio?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Post-polio syndrome is a group of potentially disabling illnesses that appear decades after contracting polio. During the 1940s and 1950s, polio was an epidemic in many Western countries; the disease was completely eradicated, though, in the United States, due to widespread vaccination efforts, including mandatory vaccinations in order to attend school.
I feel as though this sort of Final Jeopardy! is inspired by the fact that Long COVID is absolutely going to become a major news item, and the show wants to demonstrate, “Hey, this has been a thing with epidemics in the past, it’s plain to see for anyone with any knowledge of history!” Unfortunately, it’s also been my experience that people don’t want to pay attention to this.

Game Recap:
Jeopardy! Round categories: The Rainforests; What’s in a Name?; It’s May 23rd!; Wide World of Sports Films; U.S. Buildings; Anagram Pairs
Ryan and Mari got off to a good start and the two of them were tied after Single Jeopardy!; it was Jodi, though, who played the Daily Double. Jodi did lose $1,000 to that clue.
Double Jeopardy! Round categories: Relatively Successful Composers; Possessive Phrases; How Epic!; TV; Salt & Pepper; It’s an “Ad”, “Ad”, “Ad”, “Ad” World
Double Jeopardy! belonged to Ryan; he got 13 correct. Meanwhile, both of his opponents lost money on their betting clues—Jodi $1,800 and Mari $3,500. Scores going into Final were Ryan at $18,000, with Mari at $13,300 and Jodi $2,000.
Final today was a Triple Stumper, which could have been advantage Mari with how the scores went. However, Ryan bet small and Mari went big, so Ryan ended up as champion for his 7th straight win! He’ll go for win #8 tomorrow!

Today’s interviews:
Jodi went on a 60-hour mystery vacation to Jamaica.
Mari was born in Guam and did quiz bowl there.
Ryan worked for a Korean piano mover.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- I hope that players waiting to play this week noticed Ryan’s not betting to cover today.
- Friendly reminder that the judges have the ability to isolate contestant audio. If they are satisfied that contestants are responding in the form of a question, then that’s good enough for me. Complaints of this nature, for this reason, are out of order.

Final Jeopardy! betting suggestions:
(Scores: Ryan: $18,000 Mari $13,300 Jodi $2,000)
Ryan: Standard cover bet today is $8,601. If you really think that Mari will bet small, then bet no more than $799. (Actual bet: $4,600)
Mari: If Ryan covers, you need to stay above $9,400. Bet no more than $3,899. (Actual bet: $12,100)
Jodi: Not really much you can do today unless someone overbets. Bet whatever you like, though you’re more likely to finish 2nd if you have more money left. (Actual bet: $1,000)
