Chris, I think we can agree that according to the cases that have been confirmed, the odds are less than 1:1000. That is what the label says for now, and anyone taking it knows there is risk.

I'm quite sure the FDA will stay on top of this, and they are privy to much more information than we are. I'm satisfied now that they will keep things in check.
