"Taken from the comments, but it seems like someone knows about this test."

Not really. It's factually incorrect and the sort of Covidiot nonsense that's being peddled regularly on Twitter and Facebook.

It's going to be bumpy today - but, as I've consistently said, this is a share for the long term holder rather than the 10%er.

The price will fluctuate wildly today but it's just a case of 'ride it out' and reap the rewards.

"Very disappointed with odx."

Yet you supposedly want to buy 250k of the UK-RTC tests.

You're full of it. Time for you to hit the green bin.

"Can we not start a petition online in order to get the government to debate the review of these masks being made available to the NHS etc as a matter of priority for public health??"

Do you honestly think that's how these sort of procurement decisions are made? Bless....

"I expect the Liverpool tests to be LumiraDX (https://bidstats.uk/tenders/2020/W44/737739001), the government have just spent £32M on them till the end of the year"

Unlikely. The LumiraDX kit was bought for hospital POC use.

"You do realise that Mologic hold all the cards here and ODX will pick up any scraps right"

We do all realise you're posting shyte...

If you scroll down you can read the whole exchange.

They were respirators, rather than simple masks. As far as I am aware, what we will be producing won't be respirators.

And in any event, the shortfall has already been made up.

We don't need to get excited over old deals... the NHS will want the best when we start producing.

"Beautifully sunny here in Geordieland. Off on my road bike for 2 hours. When I come back hopefully, MHRA RNS out - lol. More likely that the air transporter has touched down in Turkey again!!"

Jammy git! I'm stuck on Zoom calls with NHSE and DHSC for most of today.

That said, it's a tad damp and windy down here but even so I fancy a ride along the Roman Road...

"Are these ODX tests?
The new rapid tests still involve a swab in the back of the throat and up the nose, but is analysed there and then, "using an approach similar to a pregnancy kit," said Liverpool's director of public health, Matt Ashton."

No.

There will be two immediate main markets for a gold standard antigen LFT in the UK:

(a) NIPH/T&T community testing

and

(b) NHS hospital based professional POC testing.

For the latter, molecular testing is the main process at the moment. That is expensive and time consuming, requiring specialist staff and equipment. With all admitted patients and most staff needing regular testing, antigen LFT will reduce costs and time, and potentially help in reducing waiting lists.

It will be a money-spinner... and such a large market it will be able to cope with multiple players.

I would offer to flagellate in contrition....

but it would get some of the knobjockeys that Tricky refers to a little too excited for their own good. ;-)

All of my Covid portfolio were up significantly this morning... all (bar one) have now fallen back to with 1-2% above/below opening price. I full expect them all to close above the opening price at the end of today (with the exception of one).

ODX is a solid share. Unfortunately, as some have pointed out, it is prone to be impacted by day trading more than some others but that simply gives us long term holders the opportunity to top up. It is also not helped by the fact that Covid and testing is an area where there is a lot of speculation and spin often without a basic understanding of the structures that underpin UK healthcare and processes.

But the reality is, IMO, that ODX is a robust stock offering significant long term growth and it will be sitting in my pension fund for a long time to come. But, as always, DYOR.

Oh dear...

You're back on to this old schtick again. You really need some new material.

Wise words indeed...

ODX will reward long term holders.

"Thats the biggest load of BS i've read on this board in a wrong time. What entry price are you looking at?"

Given your posting history, you're the expert on BS...

I may have to ask for another green bin.... ;-)

"If otherwise, post next week's lotto no's."

You're too late - we tried that last week...

"The New tests were validate at Porton Down UK but this was not sufficient when it comes to low levels of virus detection required in mass testing"

You're posting gibberish...

"Proff Jon Deeks univ of Reading spoke this morning BBC 24 hr news channel suggested Gov new tests should have been used in parallel with PCR testing .Hyper critical of GOV new tests not accurate not validated"

That's the same John Deeks who was forced to apologise after he ****ged off the UK-RTC tests. What you have to remember with Deeks is that the interest he is promoting isn't the public's - but his own...
