PROP5 what are you eyeing up for a quick trade?

The waiting and silence at the moment is painful. Its allows doubt to set in. However, once TT is completed the floodgates will be open and I believe news and updates will come through thick and fast at that time.

MF, my understanding is that you can self certify your own CE mark for professional use, assuming your product means the necessary criteria. I think this was covered back in the summer. Happy to be corrected if I'm spreading false info but this has always been my understanding.

Profit00, we think it's this test developed in Spain... shorturl.at/dpIT3

Remember this is an antibody test and is not suitable for detecting the infectious period, as by the time antibodies are produced you are beyond that period. In theory it can detect current infection, but by that point it's too late to be of any real help.

Myles posted on AVCT on 2nd November which was only 4 days ago...

Furthermore, lets not forget there has been dilution due to a placing so this must also be considered.

Wyndrum, I don't agree with what you're saying. The Avacta share price has risen from 20p to 170p, (previously well beyond 200p) due to covid-19 opportunities. This is all on expectation of a positive outcome.

If the market didn't believe Avacta could do it, then share price would have tumbled. The current level has is fairly average and seems to be the point where the market is comfortable with the risk vs reward. We've only risen to 200p briefly because of third party coverage such as the Boohoo boys in the papers and Bojo discussing rapid testing. Once the excitement has dwindled the share price has returned to this level.

Bojo in parliament has just said there will be a move towards 500k PCR tests per day.

Sparta, click my username, go to my post history and then go to page 7. Look for the two really long posts.

It's misleading but not false advertising. I did an extensive post on exactly this question a few weeks ago.

An antibody test can detect current infection, so it's not 'false'... However by the time you have antibodies you are already past your infectious/most infectious period. It takes around 7 days following onset on symptoms to develop antibodies. Avacta are aiming to detect the most infectious period of two days before symptoms show through to seven days afterwards. Would dig out old thread but I only have phone as currently abroad so not as easy.

Had me worried for a moment as I'm currently sat in Gatwick about to board a plane to the canaries!

mortgagefreeman, why don't you just sell your position and go away. 775 posts of complete rubbish.

When you invest in a good company, you get to make money off other peoples hard work and success. If you think you can do a better job, then go and start a business of your own and then you won't have to worry about waiting for other people's hard graft to earn you money.

I'm not sure why you think you know better? Do a search for the "Dunning Kruger effect" graph. You're on the peak, known as "mount stupid."

sleepydave, expect an RNS to confirm the colour of carpets Sir Al has chosen for his new house.

Brilliant DD, good find. I've not read the Q & A yet but this could possibly be one of the most interesting answers of the lot.

The Government are moving focus away from trying to find positive cases and isolating them, towards confirming negative results are allowing those people freedoms and access. The positive cases wouldn't be able to go anywhere or do very much, so trying to enforce isolation would be much less problematic.

He's sold 250,000 ish thousand shares and still has over 6 million shares and share options. It's in the RNS.

Bottomzup, we meet again! Good to see you over here. I don't post on this board as I don't have much to add and it's mostly a waiting game at present, but I do believe that the momentum is building and when this takes off it will do really well.

Buying a house (in normal) the times is a 2 to 3 month process. All transactions are extremely protracted at present. Lenders booking mortgage valuations over 6 weeks in advance (it can take months just to get a mortgage offer at present), local searches delayed, etc.

If sir al is in a chain and there have been delays (very likely) he could well have agreed to buy the house 6 months ago thinking the test would be to market by now. He may have found himself in the position of choosing between pulling out of the purchase and losing the house his family want or keeping his full holding.

Benefit of the doubt.

Call Myles a ramper if you like, but he has been proven right before. Firstly, anybody who bought into Avacta following his original tip about the company has done VERY well.

Secondly, some of you may recall that a few months back he said that he expected Avacta to release another type of test. Sure enough, up popped ELISA out of nowhere. There was absolutely no prior indication that was going to happen. Luck maybe, but doesn't seem likely.

I really rate the guy. I've been following him for a while and I don't recall seeing him making incorrect predictions on any share.

Good post NR11, giving it a bump back up to the top and the drivel has drowned you out. All we can do for now is try and join the dots.

Whilst those lot are working on their technical knowledge, I'll go and practice my proof reading.
