Meelie, it does seem low but remember most people will fight off covid on there own, it's the people who can't produce the levels of interferon that will really benefit from the treatment.

Hi guys, its great that polar are holding strong, but one thing that might not have been considered is one or two of Polars other holdings could have been decreased slightly, causing their percentage of sng in the portfolio to rise.

Great summery SeaBoy, the waiting can be tough, but ive made a point of reminding myself that this company is banging out 5 clinical trials in an 18 month period, it's just incredible!

I agree Denny, it's obviously way more complex, but the point I'm trying to make is you can't compare the price of a new drug that keeps people from getting seriously unwell and out of hospital to something that doesn't.

Wet dream, there are plenty of generic asthma treatments out there, you can buy generic pumps too.
As far as I'm aware patents only last 20 years in medicine.

I hear what you're saying but you can't compare sng001 to an old generic asthma drug, this is a novel treatment for a novel disease, currently being developed and funded by private enterprise, with a patent wholey owned by the developers.

The company have to prove safety, prove efficacy and prove the concept to buyers, source materials, setup medical grade processing and distribution networks, every stage has risks, and all this costs money.

Years ago when athsma treatments were new and under patent, they would have been big money too, now they're generic, they're dirt cheap, that's how pharma works.

Are asthma medications still under patent?

Not really, I can see this drifting down until the HT results RNS, im topping up if we get near £1, otherwise any sp change is irrelivent until results.

Happy, no logic

Thanks for posting Matterhron

Happy, why are you spending time on this board?

All we know is some time in q2

Leave it out oil

Org, you went to Paris and ordered the garlic mushrooms?

Org, I'm not denying elitism, I think it's holding the UK back, and probably will continue well after we're all gone, but I think it's down to insecurity, and greed at it's core. Obviously there's jobs for the boys and contracts for the boys, but that'll be in the interests of the people making the deals, you scratch my back kind of thing.

Org, that waitress sounds like a pleb. I very much doubt that particular waitress is now a big player in France's covid treatment procurement department.

It's only about money, everything is about money.
Do you think the SNP are nationalists?

Come on guys, Nationalism is for the plebs, they just want to get the best deal, it's as simple as that

Exactly Schrow, as far as rns' go, no news is good news.

it's the same every week, the price goes down to the low 1.60s and people start flapping, it moves back up to the 1.70s and it's a party in here again.
What genuinely surprises me is some of the good LTHs, really smart people btw, seem to change their tune so easily. I know we've got to be open minded and evaluate our decisions regularly but I see people arguing a case one week, then the next week they're pretty much quoting the opperstion from the week before, then the next week they're back to their original stance when the sentiment is back.
I'm not knocking any one, it's a mistake to get married to a stock, but I think we'd do well to remember the bigger picture sometimes. Vaccines are saving lives and slowly getting us back to normality, but covid is still here, and according to most of the world's prominent brainboxes, it's not going away any time soon.

Bump!
