Let this sink in—“if Long Covid risk is only 10% per infection (grey line), and 2 infections a year, your odds of getting #LongCovid reach more than 50% in just over 3 years,” but worse is that the CDC’s long COVID estimate is already higher than this!

Great to see, available within the USA and Canada too and under the same brand, however who knows whether Novacyt have ever been directly involved, hopefully IT IS previously.

Would love to know what Kevin Crittenton does day to day? Having spent the past 15 months leading the Novacyt Group entry into the Americas....really?!
I'm bemused too, the Government reluctance to test, instead allow COVID to rip through society again and again and again, which in turn shall lead to many Millions having to suffer with long COVID, which shall put immense pressure upon the Economy and the Health Service. Herd immunity is fantasy.
I have to pass an occupational medical every year, a colleague has had his medical suspended by the regulatory authority due to long COVID, unless he fully recovers, his medical shall not be returned and he will be unable to work.
Living with COVID does not mean return to normal and pretend that COVID does not exist, it is real and the impact of long COVID is scary, the more the times a person is infected with COVID the higher the risk, eventually it shall get us all.
The key words ' able to detect the virus regardless of current known mutations'
PathFlow® SARS-CoV-2 Antigen is a professional and home use LFT for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antigens using non-invasive anterior nasal swab samples to provide a result in approximately 15 minutes. Novacyt has been working with a partner to develop this test, which is able to detect the virus regardless of current known mutations. The Company intends to launch the test as CE-IVD before the end of Q2 2021 and expects it to complement Novacyt's established position in COVID-19 PCR testing. As the market for COVID-19 testing continues to develop, the Directors believe this product could add significant revenues for Novacyt.
BA.5 more damaging to lungs than earlier subvariants: study
Citing its findings, Thira warned that Covid-19 was still a more serious disease than flu and advised people not to let their guard down against the virus. He said that while vaccines gave some protection, they do not prevent severe symptoms or death in all cases. Moreover, the health risks of long Covid are well-documented, he added.

To my mind, the issue is that the experts report that testing is required and shall be required going forward, however the Government are choosing to ignore the warnings. Long COVID is dangerous condition which is affecting more and more people, yet the Government is happy to let COVID rip through society. Consider the difference to the Chinese approach, only time shall tell which nation got it right. In my opinion, there shall come a point, where Western Governments perform a U-turn, the reintroduction of routine testing, although perhaps not on the scale seen previously.
Should Novacyt see no future in COVID testing, why launch the saliva LFT? Why continue to market ProMate?
Monkeypox has spread to >70 countries on 6 continents, the WHO says cases 3X in Europe in past 2 weeks.
10% hospitalized
Maybe 100,000 by August
Need PublicHealth alarm
Before May there had been 2000 recorded cases of Monkeypox in 30 years!!
Let's not forget that the Pandemic is still raging, it ain't going away and there's still a requirement for testing, whether the Government likes it or not. On top of this we have Monkeypox, which some experts are already suggesting should now be declared a Pandemic.
“A new study also suggests that the virus might be mutating 12 times faster than expected, and could lead to 60,000 new cases per day in the U.K. alone by the end of 2022” this is for Monkeypox, potentially that's a lot of additional testing globally, on top of COVID.

Good to see that we are expanding the sales team into LATAM.
I'm pretty certain that we supply Taiwan, they'll not be buying from the Chinese. I'd agree that the Company has suggested that testing COVID testing shall dry up, however I find that hard to believe and not every nation shall simply bury their heads in the sand.
Scary stuff!
