Merchant’anker, the govt are paying £100bn for starters...

Swab based test. Fine for POC by a trained professional, otherwise worthless

Lots of great media coverage. Poor Handjob, he’s not as good at ramping as Boris.

I think that covers that merchant*ankers question of the govt commitment, £100bn plan for starters. Never mind £5Bn.

“Through that Moonshot of daily testing — everybody gets a pregnancy-style test, a rapid turn-around test in the morning, 15 minutes later you know whether you are infectious of not”

That, is a description of a LFD antigen test. Simple as that. I think Boris has got carried away with saying everyone daily, when Handjob has previously only mentioned 4m a day. To produce reliable results it can only be saliva based, we’ve seen the research showing that swabs aren’t taken correctly. There is HUGE demand out there. Any decent sized chunk of that is worth billions. Any initial success here will quickly see the world forming a socially distanced queue. Ignore the noise, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity (if it happens again, Sir Al will just bosh more tests out)

Complete lie. I invested once, barely posted on that board, it was a small punt that I sold at a loss after several weeks of not posting on that board. I’ve no idea who you are and I’m not getting in to a childish argument with you. Filtered.

Skin is worth a look though...

I’m not worried as it’s not a case of one or the other. Grow up.

Good luck to ODX holders. Good luck to GDR holders too, I personally sold to invest in Skin, always DYOR.

I have no interest in an airport sponsored trial.

I did. Another worthwhile productive trip in to the office to spend all day chatting. Normal service of watching the price bobble about and posting nonsense will resume tomorrow

It’s too late and a bit irrelevant by then. We need to find people when they’re infectious.

The price hasn’t changed. If you want to pay, crack on. Matt Handjob has put an initial £5Bn aside for testing. Your posts are getting pretty desperate.

Luckily I’ve posted this on their board so they can post about it all night :-)

Always appreciate your posts Spartacus

$15 and a lot cheaper than furlough, unemployment and the seemingly endless damage currently being caused. Thanks for popping by again. Covidiot

Would you believe it? Turns out Boris was talking about a daily antibody test.... picture the scene:

Day 1 - took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 2 - got Covid from my asymptomatic neighbour. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 3 - started shedding virus, infected a couple of people including Matt Handjob’s nan. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 4 - started spraying virus everywhere, probably infected at least 20 people today. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 5 - went to the match & pub thanks to my negative antibody test, brilliant day out, infected 30 more people. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 6 - 10 - same story, infected another bunch of people. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 11 - avoided my nan, she’s got Covid and has been hospitalised, wonder where she got that from. Took test, no antibodies. Phew
Day 12 - loving this antibody passport, went to the theatre. Took test, positive. Oh. Hang on, where did the antibodies come from? Oops, turns out I’m an asymptomatic superspreader. Damn, wonder why Boris suggested taking an utterly pointless antibody test every day. If only he’d screened the population with an antigen test so that I could have immediately isolated and stopped spreading the virus. Anyway, nan’s funeral is tomorrow, I’ve got my Covid passport so at least I can go to it.

Back to reality. There’s a need to stop transmission chains. That’s achieved through regular antigen testing. Ignoring the covidiots that believe Boris was talking about anything other than an antigen test.

The FDA have recently dropped their reporting requirements. The world needs saliva LFDs to mass screen. The fancy stuff to get mass gatherings going will follow in time, no govt will delay the holy grail to fill in a spreadsheet

Agreed. Great article, we need mass testing, we need more manufacturing capacity and we need compliance - but in return we get back to normal.

The govt have a strategy, it's Operation Moonshot and it's mass screening using a 10 min LFD. At the moment they can't deliver on that so they don't have the capacity. That will hopefully change at some point soon....

Why are you all having the same pointless argument with that covidiot merchantbanker? - clearly rhyming slang. Luckily, I've got another meeting soon - never thought I'd say that. Antibody tests are pointless, immunity passports will never exist. End of.

Yeah, at the office again today. Never too busy to fit you in though Gazala...

Can't wait for the cinematic release of Carry on Awacta.

It’ll be Sona. Remember them? Also partnered with Cytiva, part of danaher, developing a POC LFD and applying for FDA approval. Not to say we won’t go down the same route via Danaher at some point, but let’s get the UK sorted out first.

I agree, that’s why I chose 5 factors

Sir Al did say tech transfer was quick. But then that man has no concept of time. You could be right about getting the ISO status.

If you need anymore info on tech transfers, feel free to ask
