This is not the SP tracking thread .....22 Jul 2020 18:18
As I think no-one cares about todays SP (almost 100% in a week and now awaiting news) I have been trying to validate the information today (Mologic CE marking of second product and ramping up of India testing) and have liaised with Walbrook and received the following information:
On the CE mark for Mologic:
You are correct, Mologic has CE marked their second product but this has nothing to do with Omega Diagnostics.
Omega Diagnostics has an agreement with Mologic in place, to use Mologic’s technology and transfer it to their own manufacturing site, to make and commercialise their own Omega Diagnostics branded POC lateral flow test. The technical transfer of this has commenced, with the next steps including making batches of the product at scale to check the manufacturing methods work. Omega will then look to CE Mark the product.
So the MTA means the technology is transferred and Omega now build their test and brand it and will CE mark their own test - something I didnt know, but hopefully a formality (as Omega are a manufacturer after all) - this is what will be RNSd I would think but no idea how long this will take.
In terms of India testing and the ramp up reported in hindustantimes:
This is for RAPID TESTS and once Omega has CE marked a rapid test for sale in India, the Company will register and then address all the opportunities in India.
So we need the rapid test (either RTC or Mologic one I assume).
Just sharing info - and still happy with ODX - and wish i my other investment would pop (not like MBO did today!) so i could move more over here!
One thing I still dont know the absolute answer to - and dont know if someone on the board does:
On the RTC Test - Omega will be supplying the government 10million tests. But do they, as part of the consortium, have an MTA so all four members can also brand and sell the test independently outside of the UK. Do they all own the intellectual property? Not looking for guesses (I can do that!) just wondering if anyone knows and can evidence the facts to back it up.
If the Mologic POC antibody test is as good it wont matter but would still like to understand.
