A small positive reference for NCYT in main section of today's ST. Every little helps...

The problem with this RNS is that it makes no mention of how long between carrying out test and getting a diagnosis.
NCYT has already announced that its test is done and dusted inside 2 hours. Yet even with this benefit, NCYT still has not received FDA approval from the US. So why should we invest in BVC at this point in time? Just saying...... DYOR & GLA

Seem to have missed this interview earlier this morning with CEO of SYM. For me, it fills in some interesting gaps on what this FDA approval could mean for the future....

Herbieridesaga - since you asked about 9 days survival rate for coronavirus - here's the link - https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/coronaviruses-how-long-can-they-survive-on-surfaces#How-long-do-coronaviruses-persist?

bucklerfern, never mind worrying about face masks and eye protectors. The virus stays on surfaces for 9+ days, so now we have to worry about handling contaminated bank notes, coins, infected buttons on credit card / ATM machines - it's never ending!!! Keep your hand-sanitizer on you at all times and use before handling food....

I think we'd struggle to win, even if the entire opposition tested+ive for Covid-19..

parkez, if one is unfortunate enough to follow BLACKPOOL FC, a disruption to English football is a welcome relief...

You have a point, parkez. Perhaps a JV with Roche? (NCYT is already being promoted on Roche's LIGHTCYCLER platform) Trump likes stuff to be made in the US....

My guess is that when the FDA announces its approval of testing kits, it will list a number of them (hopefully including NCYT). It would be daft for the FDA to simply announce the product exclusive to one company, as that manufacturer would be totally swamped and unable to cope with global demand. It's a big market out there - as they say, "a small piece of a large cake is better than 100 per cent of nothing" GLA

Israel releases warning on 9 South Korean tourists who tested positive for coronavirus on returning home

From CNN's Amir Tal and Oren Liebermann

In a strong statement, Israel's health ministry warned that nine South Korean tourists who visited the country recently have tested positive for coronavirus upon returning home.

The ministry called on anyone who may have come into close contact with the tour group for an extended period of time to self-quarantine.

The tourists visited some of the most popular sites in Israel and the West Bank from February 8 to 16, increasing the chance of a large-scale exposure in the region, the ministry said Saturday.

Providing a list of dates and locations, the ministry warned that anyone who came within two meters of the group for more than 15 minutes should self-quarantine for 14 days.

The group visited Masada in southern Israel, the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

The potential for a large-scale exposure appears to be high given the number of tourists who regularly visit these sites and others.

The release of the statement on a Saturday is an indication of how seriously authorities are taking the threat of coronavirus spreading in Israel. Government statements are rarely released on Saturday in Israel since it is the Sabbath.

This comes after Israel announced its first case of the coronavirus on Friday. The victim is an Israeli woman who returned from the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan.

She was one of 11 passengers flown back from the Diamond Princess. The other 10 tested negative for the virus. All of the passengers remain quarantined in hospital.

"We are clearly at the brink" of pandemic, says top infectious disease doctor

From CNN's Chandelis Duster

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told CNN he thinks "we are clearly at the brink" of a coronavirus pandemic.

In an interview with CNN's Michael Smerconish on Saturday, the nation's top infectious disease doctor said: "Our fate is going to be determined by the ability of countries outside of China that have travel-related cases. And now they're starting to develop sustained transmission from person to person to person."

"So when you get countries like Japan and South Korea that have these cases that are person to person to person without any real ability to point to where it came from, that's the makings of a pandemic," Fauci said.

"And if you have multiple countries like that, then the horse is out the barn. And it's going to be very difficult to prevent more cases from coming here to our own country."

Fauci said, however, that the risk to the US is still "very low," but warned that could "change rapidly." He also said evacuating Americans off the Diamond Princess cruise ship was a "difficult decision," but he believed it was "without a doubt the correct decision."

5eigthsaccount - look again carefully at the footage - it was 'an exercise' - that's all!!

GLA & DYOR

Well done smokingjoe for this little nugget! And here's the link: https://leozagami.com/2020/02/10/a-1981-book-by-dean-koontz-predicts-a-deadly-bacteriological-weapon-called-wuhan-400/comment-page-1/ In the book (first published in 1981), the Chinese Govt appears to have deliberately created a bacteriological weapon called Wuhan-400. Spooky!! So it has nothing to do with dodgy seafood in a fish market?? GLA

Apparently the coronavirus can remain on surfaces for up to 9 days. If so, the biggest spreader is surely handling money and coins. Also tapping in your PIN number on a card machine. It never ends. Are we all going to get paranoid and carry around hand sanitizers!! How nice if we had the capability of testing ourselves. Perhaps NCYT will soon be able to offer a self-testing kit, as well its current great product. Just saying...... GLA

Possible takeover? Cash rich, just purchased its own freehold premises increasing its production capacity potential and its future profitability. Above all an EXCEEDINGLY WELL RUN operation! What's there not to like here. DYOR

My theory. MMs deliberately not declaring two large SELLS for at least 24 hours. So with a secret stash of stock, it enables them to 'fix' buying price giving the impression that no matter how many 'buys' are around, it will not increase the SP. The domino effect of this strategy is for impatient short term traders to sell, thus forcing the SP down. Clever tactic in my view, but is it sustainable, if long term holders aren't fooled by it? GLA
