@Prioance: "you clearly are trying to manipulate things from the answer you gave me"

In what way ?

@Chuggley. That from someone that wont here a negative word said about ODX, taking note of positives and negatives in a company has stood me in good stead up to now

@Prioance, But what fun would that be on a lockdown friday, never get emotionally invested, as i said happy to hear both sides of any news, I'll sell when ready

@Prioanus, I'm full of patience, have always been with ODX

@Prionace, No argument about capacity and expertise to produce lots of tests, would like to sell some though

@Chuggley, I have said previously we will see £1 again, but just ignoring the issues along the way and waving the banner constantly would be stupid (some would call that ramping), more than happy to see positive comments, but have to be weighed against lack of certainty

I always find it interesting that if you don't have rose tinted glasses for everything that happens in a company, you suddenly become a not invested de-ramper.

Happy to hear the positive take,

We could speculate that the government have removed the antibody code, because MHRA are giving us home use approval, and they wont need to manage the antibody test access

All speculation until we get news

@chuggley
Title : Exclusive: Government scraps 'game-changing' antibody tests at NHS sites

“The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) yesterday deleted a section from its website advising people on how to get free antibody tests at community clinics, mobile testing sites and in primary care.”

“ Currently, fewer than 2,400 antibody tests are being processed each day, though PHE still claims it has capacity to process 121,100 kits on a daily basis.”

With 8m in stock

@Balboa, CityAm article basically told us what we all new, Antibody testing is out of favour and are eggs are in the antigen basket, until Colin drops that as well!

“can’t sell UKRTC test yet until govt give us thumbs up etc“

Last time i checked we had an own branded Visitect antibody test we are in full control of, the lesser spotted Visitect

@Oranolio1. Global demand just makes the fact we have sold didly so much worse

Still waiting for the massive sales in India !!!

@Thinkin , @Nextyearrodders

Interesting debate on long term holders, would anyone who had an average in the 10s be over the moon, or would they be concerned that if CK cant commercialise the covid opportunity they could be back to 7.5p the Sp was at in April (ignoring the placing dilution)

Antibody testing will continue but in a much much reduced manner

Only 2.9M of the 10M Abbot/Roche tests used, plus the 1M they ordered from the UK-RTC (which was a sham of an order just to throw the consortium some scraps), means over 8m tests in storage somewhere and being used at a rate of 2.4k a day, cant see any further orders from the uk government anytime soon

@Thinkin : Do we know they are busy?, i still come back to the fact they closed for Christmas, in the middle of a bloody pandemic which needs the tests they make,

Sweepstake to guess when Tech transfer/CE mark will drop, winner will get a visitect antibody test and we know they are as rare as Dodo poo, so worth winning

I’ll start : Wednesday 27th Jan @ 7:10 Am

“ On average, 41,000 antibody tests were being sent out to NHS workers every day in late June, as the government scrambled to meet its target to complete 200,000 tests a day — a figure which included antibody tests”

“Currently, fewer than 2,400 antibody tests are being processed each day, though PHE still claims it has capacity to process 121,100 kits on a daily basis”

Has the government just seen antibody testing as a way of boosting the test stats when they were struggling for antigen tests?

How can the MHRA continue to hold back Antibody home testing when we now know previous infection gives better protection than the AZ vaccine, and we are short of vaccine for people that really need them, we basically are giving people precious vaccine when they dont need it.

Too complicated for handjob to understand?

"This would require standardisation across multiple manufacturers/suppliers"

This is why AVACTA were told to drop the salvia test and concentrate on the throat/nasal swab so that instructions across multiple suppliers could be standardised, obviously Mologic test is "Standard" approach already

Already covered this award and the similar surescreen one, not really great news for ODX
