Last year I had brief email contact with a couple of the people in
Canada:

From: Dr. Barry Rich
Dr. Weiss is the principal investigator. The timetable for Health
Canada approval of the study is a process unto itself. I have no way
of predicting when. RISUG is not likely to be readily available
anywhere in the West in the next five years, I would guess.

From: Dr. Ronald S. Weiss
Dear Mr. Pearson:
We cannot say when the Canadian health authorities will allow the
trial to proceed. Thank you for your interest.
