Statement..
Colin King, CEO of Omega commented: "I am delighted to announce the launch of the VISITECT® COVID-19 Antigen test. We look forward to updating shareholders on our commercial discussions as they conclude. I am pleased to say that we are now producing a wide range of our own tests from our Alva site and we look forward to being notified which test we will produce under the UK Government contract, which will then see us move to production of up to two million tests a week. In the meantime, there is much ongoing activity; not only are we producing our own tests, but we are also producing AbC-19 Rapid tests for the UK-RTC in anticipation of forthcoming orders as well as providing additional cassetting and pouching services to the UK Government for other COVID-19 antigen lateral flow tests."
