Twatcher,
My understanding is that the mologic design is unique - see pictures in previous post. I suspect it this aspect that is causing the issue - and that's why it seems to be classed as a kit failure.
ODX are as much to blame as the government ,they agreed to the tie up , 15 months on ! and nothing to tell the PI,s who own the company ,it is a total disgrace.
Alas they are not independent. And dictated to by this cuurent gvnmt who inmo have tainted the conservatives and democracy .
Ella10, this is Porton down you are talking about, probably some of the top scientists in the country, they work on biological and chemical weapons, they'll know how to drop a few bits of liquid onto an LFT and see/not see a line !
so its something else.
Mologic should publish the instructions and a video of a couple of folk performing the test. They seem to have a unique package for the test but are keeping it secret - is this because they have had other negative feedback. If they don't think there is an issue why not let the public see the devices in operation?
Twatcher, the test can't be that complicated. Assuming there is an issue and trying to figure out what it is is generally a better approach than refusing to acknowledge there could be an issue. It may be something as simple as an incorrect assumption by the tester or an incorrect instuction on the test. It seems to be a bit of a unique package.
I don't think sueing the gov will benefit anyone.
Omega and Mologic need to figure out what's going wrong and fix it, either with new instructions or a modified test.

"Can we have some demos please?"
To be fair the implication of the Mologic response is pretty much as per the above, they are stating that they can't figure out any way that PD is getting the failures that they are saying, and want independent witnesses to watch PD repeat the process.
Unfortunately, once you get to this stage and in particular litigation, I think we need to forget any thoughts of the mologic test being a sov test. PD aren't going to back down, uk gov can't do anything else but to support (and its not impossible that they are 'encouraging' these failures for their own reasons), and once in court its you might as well say goodbye to 6 months. And should by some magic Mologic win, its hardly conducive to a long and healthy relationship, with uk gov likely to do the bare minimum to see out the contract.
Never underestimate the ability of politics to achieve the desired outcome.
on how the mologic test works.
'The test has reportedly fallen short because of “kit failure” or being too difficult to administer. '
Can we have some demos please?
