Guardian reporting that Boris faces legal challenge to ‘chumocracy’ appointments within test and trace and vaccine preparedness bodies.

I suspect that ‘working closely with the government’ is more of a hindrance than a help!

Me too Gaz. Leaf collection is very therapeutic and justifies my stockpile of IKEA bags!

Plus vaccine developers have not had to deal with the cheeseburger factor!

Sengho Jeon, CEO of Daewoong Pharmaceutical, said, "We're investing our best resources on accelerating clinical trials, given that we had to start from phase 1 with a new, top-notch delivery method for niclosamide,"

I was speculating the other day that this new top notch delivery system could be affimers?

One for Eliot Forster perhaps? He’s secured deals with AstraZeneca in the past.

Scaredy .... in case you were still wondering

"Would some knowledgeable poster please explain why, instead of spitting on it, you don't just pop the end in your mouth for a few seconds and swill your saliva round it? If a lollypop will fit, I'm sure a test strip will."

From the horse’s mouth...

Q33: Is there a low tech version possible, without the plastic case, similar to a pool test strip?

“Dipstick” tests without the plastic cassette are possible. However, in the case of self-testing by a lay person, it is preferable to have the structural cassette and to prevent the user touching the active parts of the test, which could prevent it from working correctly.

BREAKING NEWS!

Thieves have allegedly broken in to the laboratory of Pfizer to try and steal the COVID-19 vaccine.
They apparently took a case of Viagra by mistake.

Police are looking for a gang of hardened criminals

Worth bumping this in case the weekend press is full of doom and gloom about mutations. Affimers are good for mutations.

Imagine a new production of West Side Story (Test Side Story) featuring AVCT and ODX as the Sharks and the Jets!

Niclosamide removes coronavirus in ferret in 3 days! That’s the drug for which they are now using a new, improved delivery system!

I’d like to teach the world to spit....

Can someone please take the ‘etchasketch’ off whoever is setting the SP? They don’t seem to have mastered the art of using more than one button at a time!

We used to have the phenomenon of an SP that actually moved too!

This is really encouraging. Thanks for your research.

There seems to be an element of doubt. Anyone heard anything?
