UKRTC will be the only home test kit, to be rolled out nationally.

Only a matter of time and potential of selling surplus to other government for a premium.

Health Minister Edward Argar said: “Large scale antibody surveillance studies are crucial to helping us understand how the virus has spread across the country and whether there are specific groups who are more vulnerable, as we continue our work to drive down the spread of the disease.

“We don’t yet know that antibodies provide immunity to coronavirus, but the more information we can gather on this virus, and the easier we can make it for people to participate in these studies, the better equipped we will be to respond.

“The British public have already played a massive part in helping to keep the country safe and I’d urge them to consider signing up to one of the many vital surveillance studies taking place over the coming months as part of our national testing effort.”

The study will be repeated in autumn, testing 200,000 people, and research on the accuracy of different LFTs is ongoing to ensure that the best available test is used in the REACT programme as it continues.

Kelly Beaver, Managing Director – Public Affairs, Ipsos MORI said: “The thorough and rigorous work carried out by Imperial College London has allowed us to find a robust at home finger prick test for COVID-19 antibodies. This is the springboard for developing a far greater understanding of COVID-19 antibodies and how prevalent they are in the population through our large-scale antibody study, conducted with over 100,000 members of the public.”

Biggest study on antibody finger-prick tests identifies promising kits

"They found that the best performing tests are suitable for large-scale surveillance studies to monitor the progress of the pandemic. These could correctly identify individuals with coronavirus antibodies over 80% of the time, while also correctly ruling out those who don’t in more than 98% of tested individuals."

This is the key ( 5 covid products) :

“We offer investors an opportunity to invest at a timely moment ahead of commercial ramp up of many of these products.”

Spot on. Best buy now rather than pay much higher. Thoes who are trying to scare you to sell because of their contrived timlines will lose you money.

They will be in the boiler room today scratching their heads.

Well no RNA so far today. I'll be taking advantage of any dips and topping up.

I tipped Tuesday for first RNA, last week. It'll be a shame for those who sold out for a trade today, if I'm right.

UK is 'heading back into lockdown next month', says former government chief scientist

The UK could be heading for full lockdown again by the end of the month, according to former government chief scientific adviser Sir David King.

Sir David, who has set up a scientific body called Independent Sage to shadow the UK government's advisory group, warns that the UK is nowhere near being able to reopen schools safely.

ODX published a split of increased manufacturing by product, in relation to the fund raise. They will are sticking to the stated timelines.

No, I want my top up for Monday :(

Those sales will be moped up. I have more funds lined up on Monday, first RNA on Tuesday would be perfect timing . Definitely FOMO.

We will have our multi bag day soon. FOMO still in play today and tomorrow.

Top up under 60p for a bargain.

ODX are miles ahead of AVCT, with production only months away.

The COVID-19 rapid antibody test, developed by Abingdon Health, the medical device manufacturer leading the UK-Rapid Test Consortium (UK-RTC), has received its CE mark. This means it is approved for professional use in the UK and EU.

This milestone means the rapid test, for detection of IgG antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) is now available for distribution for professional use. It will be mass produced and tests will be rolled out from the end of August. The test can be administered by healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists and healthcare workers.

Following production of tens of thousands of tests across multiple production scale batches the test has been shown to be 99.40% accurate. Testing was performed at the Ulster University and at the laboratories of Abingdon Health.

The test will be named the “AbC-19TM Rapid Test”. It uses a small drop of blood from a finger-prick, and shows results in 20 minutes, without the need to send a sample to a lab.

To understand how the test works, Abingdon Health has released a new video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqT2z8jCEHs.

The test can help build a swift and clear picture of how the virus has spread throughout mass populations. It can also help establish the effectiveness of any vaccine which provides protection by creating new antibodies. This information will be critical to managing current and future outbreaks of COVID-19.

The AbC-19 TM Rapid Test has been CE marked for professional use and has been registered with the Medical and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) declaring conformity with the essential requirements of the IVD Directive. CE marking indicates health and safety conformity for goods sold in the EU.

To develop and mass produce the volumes needed for the UK population, Abingdon Health set up and led the UK-RTC in April this year. The consortium brings together the UK’s largest rapid test medical manufacturers, working together to provide capacity for delivery of more than a million tests per month........

Vikaroo, I think this is our antibody test ;

Both the COVID-19 nasal swab and the antibody blood test will be conducted on site by medical professionals and take approximately 30 minutes; results will be returned to students within 24 to 48 hours via text or email.”

Simple Somekin, the herd does not act rationally. Fear and greed is all that drives it.
