I fear that the PML count for Tysabri users will continue to climb and make the MS patient's decision to try the drug even harder to make.

While I have no doubt that Germany's medical system is good, the husband of PML patient #5 (post marketing in Germany) just posted that Germany just instituted periodic MRI monitoring for Tysabri patients in response to the first 2 PML cases. All systems clearly have their weaknesses.
