Haven't read your other past yet, but this seems like good news for O. Left me wondering about the cautions for the IGGs. Not sure if that's the right abbreviation.

Not sure it's good news for anyone? I interpret as checking Jcv Titers is useless with Rituxan because the lab decreases, not the actual virus risk?
