RE: Pulling LFT off the shelf19 Jan 2022 09:38
roundhowe, you make some good points there. It is always the bigger picture that we should look at.
You are right, "And Wetherby itself....30 or 40 highly skilled people working mainly on Affimer diagnostics. I think this is very early days for AffiDX.".
I posted recently (sorry to draw attention to myself, though others have posted to the same effect) that the LFT story, not simply AffiDx but all the potential LFT's that will emerge, has only just started. Recent comments about the AffiDx LFT no longer being the main effort, main revenue stream etc are all valid points and do reflect a change in focus. Fine, I do not dispute that. But there is way more to Avacta Dx and LFT's than merely our next generation Covid test. (Which I am confident will be a success and will sell.)
Also, the other day, on a similar topic, I suggested that way too many smart people have put in way too much time and effort on LFT's in general and AffiDx in particular, for it all to come to nothing. You correctly reference the 30-40 highly skilled people in Wetherby; surely they are not using their combined smarts working on something that is going nowhere! The picture is changing, certainly but I believe it is just getting bigger.
