With the Biden win and his previous indications of increasing testing 7 fold I wonder if the other countries will feel compelled to increase testing so they don't fall behind. Accurate testing allows the economies to open up and stay open. Lots of people on this board have been saying that for a long time but what do we know?!?

We can only guess until it is confirmed however we can debate and dig. I like this link
https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/publications-data/covid-19-testing

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-54808784

"Liverpool has the capacity to carry out 50,000 lateral flow tests and 14,000 PCR tests a day, Mr Ashton said.

That would mean the city could in theory carry out 450,000 tests a week but, in practice, certain groups could be chosen for repeat testing."

Unsure but here is some information

"Conducted by Hong Kong-based biotechnology company Prenetics" sealed samples sent to The doctors laboratory

MisterETrayda, biden certainly has made some noise about testing. From nearly 2 weeks ago

Thanks for answering my question Airline i'm perhaps biased but i feel this is an area that can make a real difference for care homes.

I'm also sorry to hear of the bad news you received

Airlineboy, can you indicate what was confirmed? do you know or can you place a guesstimate as to when we will receive information?
thanks

Great achievement with more to follow ;-)

hiya Stanley, hiya Pal

A bit like beetlejuice you were called so fairs fair.

One stock will represent the "Big Picture" I know you have unwavering belief in avacta however you really think they will blow all other stocks out of the water with their test?

Do you know how accurate the test you don't have is?

That's going to be vital as to whether the test is used for screening (if it arrives) or if it will be used by physicians to understand the best care and treatment plan for their patients. Physicians tend to be stickler for accurate tests.

acquiring a diagnostic company with large contracts and future cash revenues in a pandemic is a no brainer and one that has been speculated about a lot on these boards and twitter.

I also think a large pharma can have better reach into other markets. Some of them will be doing their numbers and realising this pays for itself many times over

the link is indicating an acquisition from a major pharma

"GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca, ThermoFisher, Qiagen and Roche are seen as likely suitors.

GSK is regarded as the most likely buyer of Novacyt to bring fast growing diagnostics market into its revenue stream."

We all know NCYT is generating large sums of cash but it would be an almighty reverse takeover for NCYT to acquire GSK ;-)

very interesting!

hi sharehunter3 sorry you have sold out. i could tell from your recent posting that your anxiety levels had increased. NCYT sure requires stubbornness and balls of steel however I respect whatever decision you make as it's your money.
On the link you posted re the care homes I can confirm this to be both true and shocking. Sadly there are some hospitals who are now saying they need the beds to be free'd and asking care homes if they can take the patient without a test being performed (source are friends who work in hospitals and care homes)

I think it's Jersey however happy to be pointed to evidence of New Jersey :)

Here is a job ad for opencell in Jersey

What makes you say that?

Starn, Tay on twitter originally used sharehunter name and then changed it. They are not the same person.

Mark Hately header for AC Milan against Inter was a positive header!

Thanks for the link. Very interesting!

thats right Usain - https://www.euroweeklynews.com/2020/09/18/aviation-industry-recovery-hopes-dashed-as-tech-firm-admits-covid-tests-not-ready/

"A spokesman for Iabra has now said that the original statement had been released by mistake"

I wouldn't be surprised if they are being investigated for mis-reporting
