Gaza that’s from 4th of April?

52.1 to buy now.. ticking up slowly

“ Regulators, who will have seen the same data, are considering the jab for emergency use.
But there are still important questions about what dose to give, as well as who it will protect.”

We can work that out :)

EUA of vaccine released (FDA)

https://www.fda.gov/media/144245/download

Quick scan I found these points..
“ Future vaccine effectiveness as influenced by characteristics of the pandemic, changes in the virus, and/or potential effects of co-infections
The study enrollment and follow-up occurred during the period of July 27 to November 14, 2020, in various geographical locations. The evolution of the pandemic characteristics, such as increased attack rates, increased exposure of subpopulations, as well as potential changes in the virus infectivity, antigenically significant mutations to the S protein, and/or the effect of co- infections may potentially limit the generalizability of the efficacy conclusions over time. Continued evaluation of vaccine effectiveness following issuance of an EUA and/or licensure will be critical to address these uncertainties.
Vaccine effectiveness against asymptomatic infection
Data are limited to assess the effect of the vaccine against asymptomatic infection as measured by detection of the virus and/or detection of antibodies against non-vaccine antigens that would indicate infection rather than an immune response induced by the vaccine. Additional evaluations will be needed to assess the effect of the vaccine in preventing asymptomatic infection, including data from clinical trials and from the vaccine’s use post-authorization.”

“As outlined above we have a number of exciting opportunities in both antigen testing and antibody testing for COVID-19. We are very encouraged by recent news with a number of vaccine candidates demonstrating efficacy in producing an immune response as we believe testing will play a crucial role in any vaccine deployment. We continue to make progress to significantly increase lateral flow test capacity in our manufacturing site in Alva and are on target to reach a production capacity of 500,000 tests a week by the end of December.”

Colin’s words.. he wouldn’t be increasing staff massively/upping production like crazy.. not only him doing it BBI increasing too.. its not being done for nothing..

When the news starts it should be thick and fast.

I believe there was many comments similar over at nyct in the early days... look at them now... hold for gold... we know what’s to come it’s just “when..”

According to Colin on the presentation the answer is yes. But since then who knows what might of been applied for?

“ *ASTRAZENECA IS SAID TO DELAY VACCINE SUPPLY AS IT FACES MANUFACTURING DELAYS: FT”

Wonder how long immunity is from vaccine? Could it be ones that was first vaccinated have lapsed 6/12 month down the line? Before a mass coverage has commenced?

· Food intolerance business showing early signs of H2 recovery and significant growth opportunity in China

· VISITECT® CD4 Advanced Disease is the world’s only point-of-care instrument free test for monitoring people living with HIV

· CHAI is driving early country implementation and WHO prequalification enables NGO funding support for long-term use

· Exciting opportunity for the commercial roll-out of the AbC-19™ Rapid test to the UK Government and other customers

· MHRA approval for self-test use of the AbC-19™ Rapid test expected following final usability study

· Production of AbC-19™ Rapid test from the Alva site is now well underway with shipments to Abingdon already commenced

· Exciting opportunities for commercial launch of Mologic antigen test as we expect antigen testing to remain a key tool in controlling COVID-19 in 2021 and beyond

· Targeted production capacity of 500,000 lateral flow tests a week by the end of December remains on schedule

Let’s not forget for those complaining/getting impatient. Things that are likely to fall into place fairly soon.

From 8 December, reports of both your nucleic acid (COVID-19) and IgM (antibody) tests must come from the same service provider. This does not mean the provider must carry out both tests, but that the provider must guarantee both test reports. You should not use the NHS testing service to get a test in order to facilitate your travel to another country. You should arrange to take a private test.

Updated details what gov requires for use of antigen LFT

Sure that’s where the mologic antibody test was being tested too.

It’s the innova rapid test..

Covid: Greater Manchester stops care home tests over accuracy fears https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-55188183

Yet they’ve had a total of £738million orders off the uk Gov

Rapid antigen and rapid antibody tests to be rolled out in airports.
https://www.airport-technology.com/news/manchester-airports-group-covid-19/

BBI leaked the first gov order and likely could have done the same regarding MHRA/home testing..

Fingers crossed for some news this week.

Chuggley yes I’m aware the roache is lab based but as far as I’m aware I still don’t believe it has MHRA approval as stated on the site?

“ There are currently no COVID-19 self-test kits in the UK suitable for home use and it is illegal to supply them for use by members of the public. This is because no COVID-19 self-test kits have a CE mark. However, this may change if CE marked self-test kits become available.”
From gov website that.

Sorry just read the link and confirmed it’s the uk-RTC antibody test. Plenty of jobs poster by them too.

Wonder if that’s for the BBI antigen test or the uk RTC Covid test?
