It is an interesting point to know how the body might respond if has already recognised and actively fighting the virus, although I doubt it would have a negative consequence. I've asked someone who will know, and will revert here when I hear back.

Have you heard anything? I would imagine that they should be testing vaccine recipients to ensure that anyone who has Covid at the same time is -at the very least - identified as such. Or are they convinced that there will be no additional risk?

Published Nov 24th, Article on LFT as part of Gov Winter Plan. (Apologies if already posted.)https://post.parliament.uk/mass-testing-for-covid-19-using-lateral-flow-tests/Mentions tests evaluated at Porton Down and outlines the 4-stage evaluation process.From 130 tests put forward by manufacturers, 40 progressed to stage 2. Of these nine met the criteria, with six tests progressing to more detailed evaluations in phases 3 and 4. Data so far show that four tests show moderate sensitivity (about 70%) when compared with highly sensitive PCR tests, and are better at picking up infections in people who have high viral loads. One test has been rolled out nationally, on the basis of an incomplete evaluation.... (Innova of course)So four tests show ‘moderate sensitivity’ (but below the WHO recommended level of 80%). There doesn’t seem to be any suggestion that ‘one test in particular looked very promising or more sensitive than Innova’s). How do others read this?

The value is in the ground

Eurasia has one operating platinum and gold mine at West Kytlim in Russia’s Ural mountains. There is also the Semenovsky tailings project, which is also in Russia. Here the company owns three million tonnes of sand containing around 1.2 grams per ton of gold and 20 grams per ton of silver. Eurasia claims it can recover 40% of the gold with a simple cyanide leach process.

Finally, and perhaps the jewel in the crown is the Monchetundra project, located on the Kola Peninsula, Russia, which has mainly palladium, but also platinum and gold, and some copper and nickel. In October 2020, the value of the metal in the ground there was been valued at $2bn.

The West Kytlim project will need significant investment to increase production. The other two projects are non-operational, and as such, will require a lot of capital and time to get them going.

Eurasia Mining share price a buy?

At present, the Eurasia Mining share price is around 40p. Assuming a buyer comes in, shareholders will expect the total offer to at least match that. However, bids normally come with a premium attached. A shareholder that has bought in recently will certainly be hoping for a premium to make a profit.

If a takeover does happen, can investors expect a premium offer on the current share price? Well, if the Eurasia Mining’s assets are worth more than its current total market capitalisation of around £1.12bn, then there is a good case for expecting one, should a firm offer actually come in.

Buying Eurasia Mining shares today requires a belief that its assets are worth more than the company is valued at. But bear in mind the value of the metal Eurasia Mining owns will fluctuate with market prices. These values also do not reflect the investment, costs, and time required to extract and sell the metal.

They conclude that - for the above-stated reasons - EUR is NOT a buy!
Seems like the ‘Fool’ anticipates a drop in demand for the rare earth metals that both China and the USA consider to be of strategic national importance?!

Seadog, We don’t have any option. Under the Common Fisheries Policy, fish are classed as a ‘common resource’ and the rules governing fishing quotas, catch levels, subsidies, discards and a whole range of other measures is set centrally by the European Commission.
Fish used to be a cheap, nutritious meal. Now it costs a fortune.

Not much to do with Eurasia ... or Japan... but a lot to do with the revival of the U.K. fishing industry and entrepreneurs hopefully thriving from it...

Kippers R Us

SP is being manipulated to allow the institutional investors in at favourable rates. They see the bigger picture and must be salivating (no pun intended) at the thought of buying into a future “multi-billion-dollar life sciences company competing globally with the likes of Roche-Genentech, Thermo-Fisher and Abbott.”

@guitarman. Whereas passively invested Index funds have to replicate the performance of an index, actively managed funds aim to beat their benchmark index. Thus we can imagine all the active fund managers whose performance is judged in relation to the MSCI Global Small Cap Index will have taken a long hard look at the new entrants to the index this past week. You can imagine them looking at the prospects for EUA in the very near term and thinking ‘S**t! Can we really afford not to be in this one?’ Hence the piling up of ‘kippers’ so vividly described by Tilly.

Are we a ‘major supplier’? First I’ve heard.

Lasted less than 24 hours, so hardly comparable with what happened here!

@frutsels yes bought about a tap’s worth yesterday after reading the RNS - which sounds like the answer to Pfizer vaccine logistics. Proceeds coming back in here by end of day though!

Where are we looking and what is there to see? Any link or clue available?

Very good point

Surely we would have been notified by RNS if our test had failed gov. validation (this being price-sensitive information of the nth degree!)

Poundcake was a ramper on speed. Made me think of this.... (not for the faint-hearted!)

@ Leewill, along with ArnoldPalmer, thank you both for keeping this BB alive with your positive posting during a news-lite period. I think that many of the veterans are feeling a bit jaded at present but we all believe that a raft of transformative good news is coming soon.
