I saw this in another forum. It seems most MS DMDs do something to one part of our immune system, either suppress B or T cells, or keep something in the lymph glands, etc.
So infections are no surprise, and I don't think we should worry just yet, until we know more details about the patients and the circumstances surrounding the infections.
All DMDs have risk. It will just take time to figure out what to screen for, just like they have continued to do with Tysabri for recent liver problems and melanomas.
