...recently completed national meeting of ortho knee surgeons revealed 1) although the absolute science of synvisc is not perfect, it can fill a big void as substitute for unsatisfying steroid injections 2) reimbursement issues of MD profit on drug, as well as medicare reimbursement for both injection and office visit are key incentives that MD's have expressed and hopefully Wyeth is hearing 3) most MD's have not seen a rep in there office yet, so rollout is very early 4) overall in US internists as well as rheumatologists and ortho MD's will jump on bandwagon if proper incentives are alligned because there is just no good alternative the steroid injections or oral NSAI drugs

My take is that if Wyeth is as focused on these isuues as they should be, the 6-12 month earnings visibility here can result in explosive share price move...
