When GM stated this is just the beginning, he was talking about this:
From: http://bidstats.uk/tenders/2020/W41/736296992

C. the events that have led to the need for extreme urgency were unforeseeable: the Commission itself confirmed: ‘The current Coronavirus crisis presents an extreme and unforeseeable urgency – precisely for such a situation our European rules enable public buyers to buy within a matter of days, even hours, if necessary.’ (Commissioner Breton, Internal Market, 1 April 2020);

So IMO other European Health Authorities are getting ready to place their orders, as there are so few products able to differentiate between Flu and Covid-19.

Maybe that's why we haven't got an RNS.
The next one might well contain details of other orders.

IMO they probably wouldn't say no to more production facilities in the neighbourhood.
If the right Hampshire / Southampton production company came along, I could see that happening.

oil,

Does a President have to provide a morning sample (latest 12:00), and wait until evening for the results?
That's rather a long time for someone who probably has his own dedicated testing instrument, and its attendant lab technician?
Convenient that the results were provided after the fundraise event?

The presidential aircraft Airforce One has the capability to advise the president and no-one else on board, of his diagnosis.

Well done peterhar for doing the spadework on this story. ;)

Seems like they moved Trump to hospital because they wanted him to be nearer to a whole bunch of different drugs and plasma that may not have been available at the white house.

If Trump is full of drugs now, and is not improving, they should stop giving him drugs.
I think they will now start giving him blood plasma from recovered patients.
It is their best option IMO.

Giving him SNG001 now will just add to the list of reasons the presidents condition is not better.
We shouldn't get involved now, but what do you say to the Americans if they send in a reuest?

“We are excited to pioneer and introduce RNA-extraction free methodology in our laboratories, and to the diagnostic community at large,”
LabCorp Diagnostics Chief Scientific Officer Marcia Eisenberg said in the statement.

Seems they don't want to provide much info on the RNA-extraction free method.

Labcorp aren't the only ones with RNA-extraction technology, NCYT describes their extraction process thus:

From 18/06.2020 NCYT RNS:
Exsig™ Direct is an innovative direct-to-PCR extraction kit which removes the need for complex, automated magnetic bead extraction systems. It is designed to be used with the Company's COVID-19 test and is expected to significantly improve laboratory workflow, reduce cycle times, increase throughput by up to 50% and reduce costs. It uses a combination of optimised buffers to extract COVID-19 RNA from clinical samples. These buffers have been specifically designed and clinically tested to ensure the high level of testing performance of the Company's COVID-19 test is maintained. Novacyt also plans to optimise the use of this new extraction method in future PCR tests to be developed and launched by the Company.

It has been a long time since I read a report containing so many different testing subjects relevant to PCR /CRISPR / Rapid Antibody tests and LAMP tests among others. Will be placing this on my reference shelf.

Poster Wild_card placed this report on the Avacta site, (I'm invetsed there), but the content may well interest NCYT investors.

He pointed out :
OptiGene 20 min Antigen Test misreportedToday 15:16
Apologies if this has been mentioned already, but Avacta retweeted this link on 28th Sept & I noticed this part about OptiGenes "20 min rapid antigen test" having been misreported all along...

https://institute.global/policy/science-fiction-science-and-fact-realistic-route-mass-testing?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=testing-launch
"In May, the government announced a trial in Hampshire using a point-of-care reader by OptiGene. Despite it being reported as a rapid antigen test, the recent trial is actually for a LAMP test.15 The test has also been misreported as giving a 20-minute result. A high viral load could return a positive result within 20 minutes, but the entire process requires a full LAMP reaction – which takes about an hour – to confirm negatives. "

"Doesn’t want to go head to head with Biden"
Any president seeking a second term has no choice.
What did Trump expect.

It's possible we will have to wait until Trump is hospitalised before they start throwing the kitchen sink at the virus.
Only then will SNG001 be shortlisted.
I don't want that to happen to anyone, but perhaps Melania will be the duty hero, (or heroin)

That'd make his hair stand on end, - or would it?

Joey Diamond,

Could 'in the mean time' be a reference to difficulties with getting product through the regulatory channels, so best we partner with Clinigen and let them smooth out the wrinkles.
I hope we haven't given them too much of the cake in the agreement, but we probably do need their EU experience.

Agree with your interpretation of 'in the mean time', - but its not temporary.

Yes indeed, if Trump were to be treated with SNG001 nobody is going to hear of it for sure.
If th story broke, the American drug manufacturers would be nailing his hide to the wall.

Oh, and Boris Johnson is a "good ol' boy" as far as Trump is concerned, because Trump knows he could bully Boris into just about every decision Trump wants him to make.

Months ago, somebody responsible to the office of the president of the United States was planning what processes and options might be enacted should the president contract Covid-19.
If they are up to speed, recent positive trial outcomes for SNG001 should have pinged up on the radar, providing the possibility to change the previous plan. I'm sure Remdesivir is in the plan, but possibly now also Synairgen's SNG001.
RM may even have had speaks with the presidential team discussing the possibility of supply should a future presidential illness occur.
All seems routine to me.

A very prescient choice on my part when signing up to LSE BB.

Apologies for confusion Tonlin.

Response from Specialslab.

SNG001 not available presently, even under a 'special' prescription from a doctor or a pharmacist.
However that situation could change very quickly.

:((
*Note from teacher -

Must try harder

Tonlin,
Suggest in your circumstances you read the 'CLINIGEN Phone Call' thread.
I have made a few calls and some call centres will not take my enquiry further as I am not a doctor or a pharmacy.
As you are diagnosed, you have the option to request a pharmacy to ask for availability of "SNG001", (as per my specific request), and hopefully you will be able to advise us whether your information request concerning availability of SNG001 via a 'special' prescription was successful.
Failing that, I advise you talk to your doctor.

Good Luck.

Now doubting whether I will hear from specialslab again.

Isn't his situation that he could be king of the nebulisers OR the ventilators, depending on whether he picks up the phone?

Background information for special' prescription, and basis for 'educated guess'.
Have not heard from specialslab yet.
