Having read and reread todays announcement, I thought it would be worthwhile doing a comparison of the referenced interactions with the FDA , regarding previous similar announcements.

In my opinion, there is an order of magnitude of difference in the positivity and warmth (SI is far more effusive) compared to the previous announcements relating to BLA resubmission (see below extracts form previous company announcements ... spot the difference).

Apparently according to my family this "warmth & positivity" is being reflected in me today (I paid for my sons car insurance).
