It is very sad.

Thanks for the link Erin. It appears to be too early to tell what happened butthe article reported she was monitored for 6 hours after the dose:

"Whether Gilenya played a role in the patient’s death can’t be excluded or confirmed, Eric Althoff, a spokesman for the Basel, Switzerland-based drugmaker, said today in an e-mailed statement. The death is the first reported within 24 hours of the first Gilenya dose in more than 28,000 patients who have taken the drug, Althoff said."
