    That's so awesome that you've moved it ahead. Yay!
    Don't listen to me on detail stuff because all of us are a little different, and I'm a bit of a know-it-all, but if I have any advice for changing...

  8. Re: Rituximab Might Be Only Immunosuppressive Raising Mortality Risk in COVID-19

    I'm sorry but I'm gonna lob a little explosive thought.

    Hi Dave,

    I feel absolutely the same about this forum.
