Is there anyone other than Sneller selling at the moment?
I hold Sneller personally responsible for this.
Further down the Telegraph report -
How much would the test cost?
The Government has not yet released any official information about the cost of a test – though it would clearly be in the public interest for them to be affordable to everyone.
Who makes the coronavirus test?
The new tests have been developed by the UK Rapid Test Consortium (UK-RTC), a partnership between Oxford University and leading UK diagnostics firms including Abingdon Health, based in York.
Why are these tests important?
A widely available test that produces results so quickly would drastically change the UK's strategy for dealing with the virus and would change our daily lives.
In the NHS, staff would be able to return to work sooner if they know whether they have already had the virus.
People who have already had the virus and are immune would, in theory, be able to return to work and go back to their normal lives.
The impact of these tests on the economy and on public health could be enormous. See how the tests work below.
Sneller / L&G still drip-feeding?

"Shore Capital analyst Robin Speakman said: "The contract awards and operating environment has been tough for the year thus far for all outsourcers, but not least for Capita in IT with the challenges of its ongoing transformation, a strained balance sheet and competition, so this win is then welcome news, signalling some confidence in the market and Capita's position from a client perspective.
"That said, we still believe that Capita is facing stiff challenges at present with it difficult to conclude business disposals in particular. The environment, now moving off into a potential recession and still 'Brexit', is set to remain difficult for perhaps at least the next year or so."
Robin Speakman, you have got it horribly wrong! Hang down your head in shame!
"Add". Previous target 4p, new target not stated.
Over on Advfn, Dealy wrote : "I see that ninety one Ltd sold 1% during the week. They sold down their stake the week before in Countrywide from 9% to 2% and the stock doubled on the news. Who are these guys? Are they distressed sellers?"
Their stake was reduced on 03/06/2020 and the share price of Countrywide went from 63p on 04/06/2020 to 98p on 05/06/2020 to 147p on 08/06/2020. Hopefully history repeats itself when Ninety One Limited reduces its stake in Capita, and soon!
Ninety One UK Limited sold 1.09% of the company's shares up to 11/06/2020, but the RNS shows that their number of voting rights remain as 1,668,883,343 (see latest and previous RNS on their shareholding). Could this be a mistake or is there a simple explanation?
Watching ODX on google finance in the last 30 minutes, it seems that every sale at 58p is followed by a purchase above 59p. Patient buyer, impatient seller?
