he's been in the dock of an old binty !!!
Who is to say the Chinese have not sent say 5-10 million tests, I mean I can't imagine in all the rush anyone stock checked the deliveries, even to open a random box every now and again to check the amount. And
why has DHSC not been quality control these tests as they get delivered in the same manner, take a box every now and again to check?
It's open to abuse though isn't it, you can get the LFT and throw it in the bin if you want and just register the result as negative if you choose, not something I would do, but it will happen a lot.
agree entirely BB
the chinese s**t always lacked credibility, spending £3.2bn on the chinese s**t lacked credibility and the delay in implementing a UK test that would provide a reliable result lacks credibility
when people have to pay for a test to gain entry to an event, a bar, or work/meeting etc then they will have no choice but to record their result otherwise they don't get where they need to ./ want to.
I agree Chris if you don’t pay for something you don’t value it. Keep up the good work and use up the Innova tests as quickly as possible.
Me too Silverpixels but the cronyism seems all too blatant at the moment - power corrupts.
One of this mornings newspapers carried a story that Han**** had given a £20million contract to her brother. John Majors government lost an election partly because of "slease" and "brown envelopes". This shower that we have now don't even bother with the envelopes.
Just for clarity, I'm a tory!!!
Big B's. Two issues...anything for 'free' gets abused. Secondly, millions of these free lfts have been used but people cannot be bothered to record the result. Why? Either its negative, so just happily carry on with life or its positive. Oh dear. Isolate or carry on as dont want to isolate or lose money by not working etc. Each to their own. But if most positives isolate, then these tests are helping. My empoyees use them 2 to 3 times a week but dont 'officially' record the results. Evety little helps!!
The Guardian reported that 600m tests had been issued but relatively few have been used, it would seem that Lord Bethell tweet refers to those that have been used. We probably all have tests lying around the house/office but since the FDA report and double vaccination we have little incentive to use them, this is unlikely to change until we have a UK produced sovereign test that society can rely on and which can be used to fully open the economy - yes even if we have to pay for them ourselves.
That surely is the point Twatcher, we don’t know how many were ordered and or delivered/committed - why the secrecy? We are paying for them, release the information, this is the sort of secrecy that leads you to believe they have something to hide and helps no one.
isn't it reckon there was 1B+ tests ordered from innova ?
it was the same good lord that sponsored mattys bit on the side's pass into the HoC according to the news reports.
As the title says and with 183k positive cases found.

Good news? Bad news? Not sure really although I do think rapid testing is being positioned to be ramped up further through the private sector
