Neither you nor I will be involved in the negotiations so what we think to a large degree is irrelevant. It is what D.A thinks and what he persuades others on the board to think that will be imperative in moving negotiations to a point of resolution. One thing I am certain of is that this will be fairly near the top of his agenda.

Troublesome I agree I think that is why he is leaving. I draw on lifes experiences in this , I in the opinion of all close to me wouldn't let something go because of my personal principles. It resulted in three years of litigation and hefty legal fees but it was my money , this is different.

You do not need to lose your integrity in any way to negotiate Troublesome. I am totally aware my theory is guesswork , but it is not Grahams money it is ours and there is absolutely no room for one mans personal principles in this negotiation it is for the greater good of the company and the shareholders. If his principles render him incapable of negotiating then time to go imo.

We cannot underestimate the impact that the wording of practically every RNS has had on the share price. I was re reading a lot of the old RNS's on Friday and came across this. Really who writes this about a new product they are launching ( expected to be reliable) and very little fanfare about about a 39 % increase in sales of machines and no mention of what that meant for sale of diagnostic tests.
One of the first things I will be looking at is a change in tone of the RNS's.

I guess what I'm saying is G.M has taken the stance how very dare you , whereas D.A will be lets get this party started.

I think another reason we are in this position is the passion and emotional involvement G.M has for Novacyt. Do not forget a few short years ago he fought a tough battle to keep the company afloat , they had the products but no mainstream exposure. He highly probably refuses to negotiate with the DHSC and believes passionately that Novacyt are 100 % in the right. The new CEO will have no emotional attachment and will be looking purely at what fiscal outcome will benefit the company right now. I think he will drive resolution as fast as is possible. He knows brokering a deal will see a sp rerate and free up funds for acquisitions.

Soder as usual able to appraise the entire situation and encapsulate it in one short message.

I don't think you are a deramper Troublesome.
Some posters constant negativity of a share they supposedly own speaks volumes to me.
Open debate is healthy , understanding competition is healthy . Perhaps some should understand the fundemental differences between ONP and NCYT . Genomic sequencing versus genotyping testing.

Troublesome you are both well read and articulate , both blindingly obvious to me. The post as you know well was not directed at you , your name was used as an example of what is not on a birth cert. You do however encourage the posters who challage ' honesty' via establishing exactly who is who. We will never know and it is highly disruptive, you know it , I know it and all those who persist in joining in know it.

Kitzie that is my understanding too but that cannot prevent you from changing your mind if you so desire. Which I guess would require you mailing Novacyt , instructing them to disregard your vote and then re vote.

What a shame that we can not have a conversation about a new theraputic and the board resorts to utter nonsense speculating about who is who. Reality is guess Troublesome , Porky9 arent on many birth certs. My name is.
Fwiw I rate Hillseeker very highly and he is non confrontational so imo a below the belt poke most definitely not required.

It is a prime example of how Promate requiring no lab could be in situ in care homes to take advantage of any benefits a new therapeutic offering like this could have. The tight deadline for the treatment to be effective , five days from onset means it is only effective is testing is proactive not reactive in the vunerable subset this drug targets. That is more regular PCR testing for this identified group.

Morning all,
Any therapeutic that works is great news for mankind and cannot be criticised, it would be outrageous to do so . One must however look at the target audience and what the impact will be.
Of course there are headline grabbing statements that it reduces hospitalisations by 50 % but 50 % of who ?
The target criteria of this trial is to have a heart condition , be obese , have diabetes etc. Secondly and very important you have to commence treatment within five days of contracting coronavirious.
So for those that fit the criteria for taking this drug that means a massive increase in testing. If this drug becomes available and you knew it might be of benefit to you and you were at high risk of becoming seriously ill , what would you do immediately , personally at the first sign of a tickle in the throat or a cough I would be taking a pcr test. I can only see this increasing pcr testing dramatically. No way if you could potentially take this drug would you wait and see what happens nor opt for an LFT test.
The 50 % reduction in hospitalisations is a headline grabber ,it is 50 % of a small subset of people , BUT a subset of those identified as most at risk.
I am no medical expert at all but having been triallled on a such a small cohert of people this will never be a treatment for the masses it needs extensive testing. This treatment has to be administered early pre hospitalisation and therefore will only be effective to any degree if there is watertight testing regularily of those who could benefit from this drug. A lot of people have no symptoms by day five , this is were a q32 in a care home with residents tested weekly for example really could help save lives. For those others at high risk a weekly pcr test whilst community levels of covid are high should be the next logical test step.
I cannot comment on all the scientific papers regarding disruption to cells and mutations as I am not medical. It is however interesting that participants in the trial had to refrain from activities that could result in pregnancy.

Oops just looked graphite bot 9/9.

Well spotted Exmex thank you

Yes Exmex and that's when we hopefully have some decent marketing. Infact you can book slots to talk to any who want to attend. Will suggest to Mandy

Novice hi , if I have missed approvals shoot me now! Not that I am aware but more then happy to be corrected by anyone.
GIZZMO yes.

@Porky , are you suggesting a UK broker called a French broker and said we are short on shares give us a load. Who are you suggesting traded the deal. Can you explain in more detail , doesn't make sense to me

As Promate cannot be sold in the states or Winterplex or Escapeplex yet I don't think it is particularly relevant. Not a lot of point of shouting about it from the rooftops if they can't have it ? Am i missing the point here ?
