MS wonder drug 'balanced alert'


Wednesday November 18 2009
PHARMACEUTICALS
Elan and partner Biogen Idec aim to find a "balanced way" of alerting investors about the number of brain infections linked to their Tysabri multiple sclerosis drug by the end of this year after a surge in cases, CEO Kelly Martin said yesterday. It was recently confirmed that Tysabri has been linked to four deaths and 24 cases of the deadly brain infection known as PML since the product was reintroduced in 2006.




Anyone see anything missing in this statement?

WTF!!! What about the PATIENTS???

Letters streaming forth to both...GRRRRR.
