I've just transferred in some spare funds to buy in my ISA. I noticed my MM is charging a premium again.

My 'cunning' plan this year was to take crypto profits to fill my ISA, but the cryptos are hot too, so I'm rethinking timing. It's all about the %s

I'm looking forward to an update in the next six weeks or so if any of the progress is to delayed past H1. As others have mentioned, as soon as the NHS has the capacity to undertake them, there are unfortunately many patients who perhaps meet the criteria to prove the efficacy of Scancell's product lines.

I looked up the 'usual' baseline rate of blood clots for someone in another group last week. I think it was 5 in 1 million. I think it is worth tracking over the next several years, because these are the early reports, not the total reports. Perhaps a project for the British Heart Foundation?

Looks like an ISA buy to me. I haven't yet spent my 2021 allowance...

Did you see the two mutations strain? It us certainly one smart virus, so please stay safe out there!

That was the strategy Bingham mentioned last year. However, looking at the leaked list of Government investments presented just a few months later, virtually all Government investments were for vaccines NOT developed on this island....

My assumption is that Redmile took a punt and bought some shares last year sometime before the Placing. However, I don't have the access level to their investment list to check the date of their first investment.

Cliff has been very clear that they will need partners to bring covidity to fruition, so I'm assuming that someone is busy arranging the best line up. I'm hoping Charles River's take over of Cobra's parent means that there will be an even bigger footprint in the US, and hopefully the whole of the NA/SA countries.

ATB all, LL

Just a query. I seem to recall that scancell announced their Covidity project around April last year. IDK when Redmile bought their first share(s)

Does anyone know the answer to that?

I am not saying they are in Scancell for Covidity, only querying whether they invested before or after Covidity was announced.

Agree, very interesting description.

I had hoped that the price would not jump until next Friday, but when things moon, they moon...

Hope all have a great weekend. It's a strong hold for me today.

Krafty, does that mean that only current potential universal covid projects would meet that timetable?

There are only 25 DNA based projects, of which 10 are in CTs according to the WHO tracker dated yesterday: https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/draft-landscape-of-covid-19-candidate-vaccines

I see plenty of posts. However I usually need to refresh my screen twice to see the real picture.

Good to see you back. I think I missed the weekend discussion.

It would be great to get a few others back too. For me, it's merely being selfish so that I don't have to wade through two boards.

All the best for the long weekend all. Since Thursday was the new Friday a few years back, I'm taking it that tomorrow is the end of the week for some. (smiley)

So you want a 1st April Fools Day RNS? That's the day they shut up shop for the weekend.

I hesitated to mention that in case I jinxed it. I'd prefer a buyout after we rise a "silly" 2000% on the news of a universal covid vaccine**

(**not to be confused with universal access to a vaccine)

Thanks for these WF as my time online is very much limited nowadays.

I'm looking forward to hearing how the buyouts may impact manufacturing for Scancell.

(Scancell Cobra announcement October 2020; Buyout January 2021 and buyout of the buyout-er March 2021.)

Did you catch yesterday's news that

Charles River Laboratories Completes the Acquisition of Cognate BioServices
In January, Cognate BioServices completed the acquisition of Cobra Biologics

At the time, I felt it meant that Scancell would have direct access to three key markets as Cobra have GMP facilities in the UK and Sweden and Cognate have man. facilities in Tennessee, and were looking to develop in Maryland.

Not quite sure what the impact of the Charles Rivers acquisition will have on Cobra's contract to manufacture Scancell's vaccines.

A couple of the small trades coming through shortly will be mine, investing dividends as per my plan.

I would buy the dip before the xd date, sell the profits ahead of the xd date.

Some have even said they sold the profits and then bought the dip on the day before the xd date.

I think it is an important distinction, eg universal access versus a vaccine which protects against all strains. Many countries have no manufacturing facilities to produce the numbers they need, and some countries have limited their exports.

I don't know what I missed over the weekend, but I really can't see how C7 got banned. For me, it is a huge loss - he was one of the key reasons I stuck with LSE over other options.

If someone could forward my best wishes for his health and happiness, I'd be grateful.

Thanks Crumbs, that was the other one I spotted being mentioned.

It would not hurt to have some support, eg comments on Scancell tweets, and to comment mentioning Scancell.
