Not that we need any, but the recent decision in McFarland v. APP Pharmaceuticals LLC, slip op., 2011 WL 2413797 (W.D. Wash. June 13, 2011), is another reason to like TwIqbal.

The wife plaintiff was administered an anticoagulant drug and, lo and behold, her “platelet counts dropped dramatically.” 2011 WL 2413797, at *1. Unfortunately, that was not a good thing – not at all – and she lost a leg.

She sued.

Boy did she sue.
