This is wonderful! For those not familiar with this, Rh disease, which is due to blood incompatibility between the Rh+ fetus and the Rh- mother, can be almost completely prevented by administering so called anti-D antibodies derived from human blood (those like James Harrison, who are Rh- and develop these through immunization with Rh antigens). While this is an amazingly effective treatment - a better approach would be to develop a monoclonal antibody that one can have unlimited supply of and does not rely on human blood - I think this has been hampered by lack of good understanding of precise mechanism how anti-D antibodies from human blood work.
