Clearly your not interested in real questions. We are in a hole; do you want to get out of it now or follow our media culture of blame. And please, I’m amazed how the whole population is suddenly paying all their taxes and law abiding. We don’t need the police then or the courts - apart from Cummings of course and he’d be found not guilty . Let me know when the world is so black and white.
We have a crisis, focus on that
@jimzi
I don't even know how to put it politely. Yes I want the media to ask the questions because I am a law abiding tax paying citizen and I don't expect any less from our leaders.
Cummings orchestrate the story about the multim mil savings for the NHS, yes correct the same NHS that is now without PPE and testing capabilities.
Juvenile playground,oh dear.
To understand why you are not getting your RNS why testing is a laughing stock matter you must educate yourself on what and who has brought us here.
You want to stay alive you say, stay alert .lol
Anyone remember Caroline Flack. He’s just one man, has a wife and a young child. Let’s move on. Good health and luck to you all.
Tricky.,
Do you want our media to ask / analyse real areas of interest. ( death rate to density correlation, mutation risks etc) or blatantly focus on an irrelevant and inconsequential journey. I’d prefer to deal with real risk matters rather than juvenile playground point scoring. But hey, I want to stay alive
We really do need to stay on ODX. Piper if you're going to use this to show your ignorant politics I will digress for long enough to say us 'leftie scumbags' probably hate you too. ******** if you think that the north of England are impressed with Cummings driving up north with the virus, with his wife who had the virus and with the poor kid in the car who ended up getting sick too. He didn't follow the guidance. He's an arrogant twat and he's no respect for the British people if he thinks anyone is buying that story. Some of you posters are a sad bunch of Tories parroting that nonsense. You embarrass yourself tbh.
Here's the key.... certification system to be developed. i.e. the so what regarding result of a test.
The lab test prioritised for NHS and care workers. The reason for this is the "so what" is and always has been that we want and we need these people to be at work and we need them to feel safe, and if they know they have immunity that goes a long way to achieve that. It's not just about capacity, its because it fits the strategy.
If you start rolling out to mass market and Margaret from Bognor Regis tests positive and wants to go on her holiday or Joey from Dagenham is now demanding the gyms and the nightclubs are open, there needs to be a well thought out policy with this certification system.
"He said a “certification” system would be developed for those who tested positive for antibodies.
“We’re developing this critical science to know the impact of a positive antibody test and to develop the systems of certification to ensure people who have positive antibodies can be given assurances of what they can safely do,” he said.

Although I don't do politics or subscribe to either side. I do think he should have stayed put, if his family are capable of looking after the child then they are capable of driving to collect him should they both have been ill. Having said that I don't see why it is of national debate.
At a time when the world should be pulling together, I would like to think that both parties and the press should be working together. Instead, the press has been a **** show and have only been concerned with copies sold or clicks clicked. The politicians and media are ripping holes in each other, it is shameful and tiresome.
So I look forward to seeing ODX splashed across the countries press in a positive manner and hopefully the worlds press soon too.
Elon, I do understand your concern but I think this is shared by quite a few investors with ODX due to everyone putting an almost judgement day scenario on it. If it’s not out by 1/June then we’re all out of pocket here.
However reading the posts I think Merchantbanker, who is clearly well respected here, makes fair and sound points. Just because an app could be ready by 1/June doesn’t mean multiple companies products will be also. There will always be a high demand for ACCURATE antibody testing.
He was acting to save / protect his sons life. ( and within the guidelines). What is everyone’s problem with that ?
The whole crisis stinks but turning on each other gets you precisely nowhere.
And are you now not going to social distance because of what happened- if so, good luck to you - luckily most peeps still can think for themselves
Unbelievable. People still don't see what's wrong with Cummings going about his business during lockdown.
Go tell it's just the lefty media to those who couldn't attend a funeral of their loved ones.
The stay at home and save the NHS was meant only for us, the working class?
When I went for my driving test the first thing the examiner asked me to do was to read the number plate of a car at a distance to test my eyesight. Here we have someone who did the reverse by taking a long drive to test the fitness of his eyesight.
The ship hasn’t sailed if the POC test is created which was always the case. Newton last week on radio 4 said they were creating a testing method for the future not the past which includes antibody testing
The announcement today on Ppe I understand includes a far higher proportion of uk made products instead of everything from China, they are restocking for wave two and altering the supply routes
Antibody tests as the data improves will help individuals and nhs understand the overall risk in areas. Ie your a teacher, worried about going back to work, complete the test, have antibodies therefore happier to return.
The ship is far from sailed, the challenge is making a POC that works, no change.
Bear then in mind global, vulnerable people, vulnerable people’s families, achieving herd immunity etc etc
Lots to play for
Elon that is a xxxx pound question. Other " Covid " shares have made some moving today up or under. Self bias awareness is a good thing, keep reviewing your positions and challenge yourself, critical thinking will always land you in a comfortable spot. Sometime last week for me was more of a time issue, with imminent news of a restart I made some side moves that worked out
quite well today, JD sport top up to name one.
The truth is that ODX can be a multibagger so the question for me was how much do I keep on the project while pumpimg on the reopening news rally.
Hope this help.
There is more to this than having a test that works. You need production capacity to meet demand, which means production facility up-scaled, staff recruited and trained, distribution. They will never get to a position where they announce a test but then announce it will be months to come out as they can't make enough yet.
Secondly there is the "so what". What do the test results mean. The last thing they want is a government approved test out there without a clear message about what a negative or positive result means. It may well be that we are just not ready for the masses to take these tests yet because we are not yet at the right point in our strategy where we can guide whether a positive test gives more freedom. This could be a political nightmare.

The notion that the conservatives will do anything to benefit the North is laughable. A leopard doesn't change its spots. More money to the home counties i say!
Back to ODX I still have faith this will come good. If the government weren't involved we would have had newsflow by now
Obviously you lot up North hsve forgiven MT for the closure of the mines now;He Drove 30 miles to test his eye sight!!!!
Don’t forget amazon is set up and waiting for these tests !!!
Elon, how can the ship have sailed, I'm sure you understand this enough to know that is a ridiculous suggestion.
There are billions of people worldwide that want to know if they have had the corona virus and have immunity. So far the number of people that have had an antibody tests will be less than 0.01%. How can the ship have sailed? There is no approved mass market product out there.
These demands of news tomorrow etc are highly optimistic views led by those that want to make a quick buck and probably sell on news. Anyone that can't wait a couple of weeks for this is crazy, because you will wait a very long time for another opportunity like it.
In reality it doesn't matter if it happens tomorrow next week or the week after. The suggestion is that mass roll out will be ready for June which means if you follow that suggestion you would expect news by end of 2nd week of June latest. It's much better to have a wider window of when you expect news. One that fits in with the government's strategy, not one that fits with peoples desire to get rich overnight.
The RTC will be the game changer, its always been seen that way and nothing has changed.
...anybody else think they just haven't cracked it?
i'm invested here and am desperate for some positive news. The Gov really needed some blockbuster news to take the game far enough away from the cummings saga but they haven't mentioned anything...i would go so far as to say they have been overly quiet. if they had new on the consortium and Test, track trace do you not think they would have shouted that from the rooftops today. Schools go back next week, the country is on a path to be fully open...the scottish government has played their tracking hand even!
The new working class Tory Brexiteer majority up North are fully behind Boris and Dom and will continue to be. Lying toerag Starmer with his “negotiate a deal then put it back to the people and campaign against it” bull sheet wasn’t fooling anybody and still isn’t.
Lefty scum not welcome up north. Boris and Dom will get another term. We won’t forget Starmers lying bull up here.
I fully agree. I hate these lefty scumbag remoaner media pack. It has now emerged that SNP Sweaty Sock Windbag, Ian Blackford drove from Westminster to the Isle of Skye, and took a ferry, then had to isolate away from his wife just like Cummings did. Blackford had no excuses, he had symptoms but no kid to worry about. No furore about Blackford.
The media have basically got a sore ass over Brexit. They think if they bring down Boris they’ll get a Remoaner in and overturn Brexit.
I hope Boris and Dom sack off the license fee. Meanwhile just refuse to pay it. Can’t pay, won’t pay. Scumbag media.
Correct Sage.
Dissecting one persons subjective and reasonable behaviour that has no consequence to any normal person, when the world is facing an unidentifiable killer that may mutate etc etc is hysterical behaviour aka princess di syndrome.
I want brains to beat this cause emotion won’t.
I’m angry with this pathetic public self righteousness and indignation.
No matter what your opinion of Cummings actions is, repeatedly asking questions that have been debated to death is a complete waste of time. Fair play for giving an answer and shutting them down as they have said they will not answer questions on it yet they still want to use their 30 seconds to have a dig about this.
I burst out laughing and hes just cut off another one.
This is their tactic now clearly but I'm still very angry with that hypocrite Cummings
