It makes sense that odx aren’t as involved in the second antigen saliva test as they already signed development and manufacturing with Mologic on a three year deal months ago.
Like the USA I hope the uk government picks uk businesses to supply the products, one thing for sure trump was never going to go outside America.
So we need to replicate the same and hope the government strike deals with uk businesses that issue the tests. Rapid flow, non instrument tests are key to opening society fully, there is no saliva test coming earlier than December, trump has announced a hybrid version because he has an election to win.
I contacted the journalist via Twitter to seek clarification about Omega's involvement but have yet to receive a response and I imagine Walbrook and the company have had a significant number of enquiries as a result of that story as well. If the article was totally fabricated then no doubt Omega's name would have been completely removed.
The fact that it has been amended but still mentions Omega is very telling IMHO.
We can probably count down the days that we remain independent now. Very sad if we cannot remain independent unless we can merge with one or two of the ukrtc consotium .
That is exactly why Omega is so vital for the UK current, prior to the pandemic, it was a company that has specialized in the development and manufacturing of rapid lateral flow tests. It has years of experience, a distribution network, industry contacts. Many big pharm companies prior to the pandemic didn't even have a diagnostic side to their business and this pandemic has highlighted how neglected, underfunded and undervalued the diagnostic sector was.

Trump and his admiral have just demonstrated a poc, none instrument tests on national tv from Abbott. Still needs a professional person to administer but getting closer to our tests and options.
This is then recommended by governors to use in areas, places like schools to keep open, businesses etc.
It’s all about testing fast enough to stay open at such a low cost that it’s an instant payback rather than closing down.
There is no saliva test coming quicker to market than Mologic, odx.
That’s what everyone is talking about now, government, USA, everyone is looking for millions of rapid, point of care tests to not only test but make it so much easier that it solves our social paralysis, it’s now taking share, quality of test, availability of test and in this market some of the big boys can’t compete as they simply don’t make them.
