Thank you Agate for the update. We need to know this, so that we can make an informed decision on whether or not to take it.
The odds are still not bad, but any death is horrible.

Hi Sally,
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that 92,000 number the total of all patients who have tried Tysabri at some point? I think the current user stat is just under 70,000.
