I guess it depends on ones forecast of additional cases of PML being reported.

If so, it might be worth a look as a speculative buy.

>> Is this case within the expected bounds?

My intuitive reaction is that we are still well below the label. Any statisticians want to comment?

The 14 month term strikes me as modal. Hasn't that number come up before?

If so, that may even be good. Do patients who get past Scylla and Charybdis have a lower risk? Or will we find that risk increases with time on drug?

Any of the medical wizzes care to inform this lawyer?
