Sean007, what people are saying is that there's not yet a direct cause-and-effect link between Enbrel and the deaths. There simply need to be more long-term studies. The drug does directly modify the immune system, so I wouldn't be surprised if caution is needed in physicians applying the drug to patients, especially if their immune system is weak to start out. It is in the long-term interests of patients, shareholders, regulators and management that this drug is properly understood.

What we don't need is a hysterical reaction when nothing is proven yet. The drug has shown it made one hell (I mean heaven) of a difference in a lot of people's lives who have RA.

Btw, why are you here on this board anyway? People are here usually because they want to make profit, which in turn give them happiness in their lives.
