  • Covid Ramblings
    Michael Nevins
    Each chapter in this brief compendium was prompted by something related to the COVID-19 pandemic which, in turn, led me to recall a subject often far removed from where I began. While digressing, I rejuvenated several oldies from my previous twelve books about medical history and added a few newbies. The titles of the last four of my books all included the word meanderings, but...
