One thing is absolutely clear- in an attempt ( possibly well meant but undoubtedly dubious, at best ) the government, in setting up ABDX, apparently insisting on NDA's, trying to short cut the process to procurement, has achieved exactly the opposite.
Shambolic would be a kind description, other words like inept and corrupt spring readily to mind - especially for groups like GLP. This has trashed ABDX, NCYT, ODX and (temporarily) GDR, although probably all will recover. More importantly like many other areas of governmental effort it has exposed our leaders for the clowns they are and most importantly of all, it has hampered efforts to deal with the pandemic.
Hopefully this will be dealt with rapidly and we will move on but sadly it’s all to typical.
Unbelievably bad doesn't begin to describe this appalling c*ck up.
