Albi,

Yes I agree with what you are saying, ie both ODX and AVCT are or can play a significant part in the Testing, Track, and Trace Strategy without a doubt.

But for now there is a great need, most particulary for those vulnerable members of society ie, care homes (AVCT instant testing) and for employers/immunity passports (Antibody/ODX) that will provide both companys a great opportunity since this threat will not be completely removed even though numbers for new infections in the UK for now are significantly reduced.

We all face a very real threat of a second wave.

Albi,

Watch this, 'Boris Johnson | Commons Liaison Committee' from about 43:00, this all about testing for positive cases and Care Homes etc and the issues surrounding results time, hence when he talks about Pregnancy style tests it is this , ie LFD test , ie same as the Avacta test etc that I was trying to highlight and it is this I believe he was on about.

Yes an ANTIBODY test (Have you had CV19?) is not an ANTIGEN TEST, Do you have CV19? ie the Avacta Lateral Flow Saliva Test

Yes your Yahoo link covers Antibody but is NOT the same as a quick Antigen/Pregnancy type test.

'Governments are hoping that antibody tests could pave the way for a gradual reopening of their economies, since they can confirm that an already infected person has recovered from the virus.

Roche's ANTIBODY test requires being sent to Lab, different test, different kettle of fish.

Listen to Boris and look up the initial Liasion meeting , a Pregnancy Type test is carried out in minutes, this I reckon was what he was on about in answer to Jeremy Hunts question as to why test results were taking so long because of having to sent to Labs etc.
Watch Boris or better still find the actual meeting maybe on Parliament site

Muir/In4Pin4,

Provide me a link that shows Roche are developing a Lateral Flow/Pregnancy type test that will provide an answer on whether you have or do not have CV19.

Further, provide me a link that says an Antibody Test can be carried out using Saliva?

themuir,

Antibody Test - Have you had CV19 recovered and have antibodies in your blood?

Antigen Test- Do you currently have CV19

themuir,

A Pregnancy type Lateral Flow test that the PM has just alluded to in the live Liasion Committe meeting today ,started at 4pm , has nothing to with an Antibody test that you are banging on about. The antibody test (Roche) requires Lab analysis and time etc.

The Avacta Lateral Flow test is purely to test if you are postive for CV19.

themuir,

I'm sorry but I think it is you whom are wrong here.
https://www.roche.com/media/releases/med-cor-2020-05-03.htm
'Hospitals and reference laboratories can run the test on Roche’s cobas e analysers, which are widely available around the world.'

themuir, 'Yes is that the Roche 10 million tests they bought.'

Are Roche providing Lateral Flow Tests? I don't think so, the Roche test is for antibody detection isn't it?
https://www.roche.com/media/releases/med-cor-2020-05-03.htm
'Roche’s SARS-CoV2 antibody test, which has a specificity greater than 99.8% and 100% sensitivity3 (14 Days post-PCR confirmation), can help assess patients’ immune response to the virus. As more is understood about immunity to SARS-CoV-2, the test may help to assess who has built up immunity to the virus'

Totally different test to a LFD/ style Pregnancy testthat Avacta are working on with Cytiva.

Try -20.00 , Jeremy Hunt question, follow from there.

About -8.26 into live feed

Boris just been asked why some tests results are taking longer than expected for results etc.

His answer, Issues with labs etc, and so we are also looking at Pregnancy Type tests to improve result time'

SSB,

Re: 'So can the Company buy its own shares? No is the answer.'

Have you looked at the voting questions re up and coming AGM, they are available on ii if you have an account, am sure though not 100% certain that should shareholders agree then the company could buy it's own shares.

How might that question be asked not sure, but would provide an answer.

'So why the screaming mental increase in the SP over pre troubled levels ??'

Good question.

Let's not forget most recent RNS, DTG have financial resources should they wish to use them to at the very least last out till April 2021, plus recent report from the BOE. Hence confidence has for now at least barring a second wave increased, imo.

From FT Article Comments:

https://www.ft.com/content/f8d4fc4a-1098-4d8b-8149-59a0eeae02ce

'I’m disappointed that an FT journalist reporting on an issue as critical as initial production data does not understand the meaning of “interference”. Thanks for explaining the phenomena but next time please ensure it’s correct. There are plenty of Petroleum Engineers who are looking for work, next time ask one of them to review your article prior to publishing.'

Sad state of affairs when the press cannot get their facts correct, though no surprise there, given concerted attacks as of late.

ReTakeover,

Should the current CV19 LFD device fail for whatever reason, there will, at this juncture be no takeover IMHO, all will then rest on other project pipelines.

For now Avacta's immediate future rests on CV19.

He the CEO of RIO better get his skates on then, the Chinese are on the lookout to scoop up cheap companies.

'Is there one??'

Of course there is given poitical motivation, change in legislation, etc, etc.

Whats your solution?

Robone,

I'm looking at our 'Potential Future'not our past, that's where we should be concentrating our efforts imo.
