"Regulator ... you are obviously a professional investor and very happy with the performance of ODX."

Nope - just an experienced (and relatively successful) amateur.

"You must have got in the early days at 10p or something you wouldn't be telling me I should be a short term investor."

I've been in for about 15 months, with an average PPS of 52.45p. But as I've made clear on a number of occasions when asked, I've bought for the long term. I've done my due diligence and research and am happy that, in the medium to long term, this is an investment that will pay off.

But I understand that investment is about the long game (some of the shares I own are as old as me) and not about short-term gambling with money I can't afford to lose. As Warren Buffett says "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient."

"You claim everyone who is not happy is a deramper or should sell his stock."

Actually, I don't. You'll find I very rarely call be 'derampers' (or 'rampers'). What I do do is take the p**s out of people whose agendas are transparent or who think that they are some how 'owed' because they have a few shares in a company.

"Either you are God and know what's happening with the stock in the future or are just as frustrated as me but don't want to speak your mind as to lose your following on here"

I'm not God or some cult leader with 'followers' - just someone who isn't so inadequate that they need the approval of others.

"Simple ... I would rather not lose money and am waiting for it to rerate but its painful seeing it drop nearly every day. I am glad you happy with the 17% rise from last week totally demolished."

This post perfectly demonstrates why you should be considered a short term gambler rather than a long term investor...

"why don't you stick to giving advise to people who actually care ... I know whether investing is for me or not. JUST NOT THIS STOCK."

Well, you do keep asking stupid questions...

If this stock isn't for you then why not sell up and stop whining like a five year old in the back of a car on a long journey?

"Truth is I cant make a decision and just wish thsi would go back to 80p and i sell. Too stressful and too much uncertainty here"

Sounds like investing isn't for you. Perhaps stick to Lottery scratchcards...

"Is waiting for 1 year a short time?"

In terms of investing, yes.

These results will so p**s off the RMS acolytes, who see TB as the devil incarnate...

Nope.... MSC. They were offering up to 50% discounts for NHS staff and their families.

"Regulator, did they give you an antibody test before your booster jab so they could note your level before and after?"

They took bloods prior to the jab. I will only get told if that shows I have an active infection.

"Poss silly question Regulator - did you have to have the same jab you were vaccinated with first 2 times (eg. AZ, Pfizer etc). Thanks,"

No. They deliberately give you a different vaccine (or the placebo, which is the meningitis vaccine). The idea is to test if giving different vaccines as a booster increases protection.

Just back from my initial appointment for the CovBoost clinical trial (https://www.covboost.org.uk/). Very slick operation at the Cambridge Clinical Research Centre (at Addenbrooke's Hospital).

Very lengthy questionnaire and interview with a doctor, followed by blood tests and then a jab. Process took about two hours overall. My next visit is supposed to be in 28 days but we're due to be on a cruise, so they've brought it forward to the day before we go. It's only blood tests that time so it shouldn't be an issue.

I'll need to keep an online diary for the next week and then record anything relevant by exception after that.

Slightly achy arm this time but nothing major. If I do get any side effects they suggest they're most likely to start 48-72 hours after the jab.

They are still looking for volunteers in a number of the test sites around the country, so if you're eligible do please consider it.

"The MHRA authorised self test procedures under emergency use. A perfectly legal pathway to use. The UK decided to use this product "off-IFU" so there will unlikely be legal implications for the manufacturer."

The Coronavirus Act 2020 also waived liability for both manufacturers and the state (a little something many people missed at the time of the debate - such as it was).

Peterpaz is correct... I'm a man not a woman.

Me too...

"Mcap £114m ....how can that be justified!?
This company always under-delivers.
By the time they get approved to manufacture LFT kits the party will be over!"

Another one to add to the compost heap...

Lots of people talk complete bo11ock5 on Twitter... HTH.

"I think it could be Surescreen."

I've said that for a while... I think they'll also potentially agree Mologic/Visitest. I don't think there will be a single test - there'll be a few in the supply pipeline.

And this makes it even clearer:

"The test is already CE marked for professional-use and the Company is targeting approval by the end of July to allow the test to be sold in Europe for home-use as well."

"Also RNS states CE marking for home use is being sought is that for UK or EU home use?"

The first line of the RNS of 8 June is fairly clear:

"Omega announces that it has begun the process of engagement with its European Notified Body seeking CE marking of the VISITECT® COVID-19 Antigen test, a rapid point-of-care diagnostic test for the detection of active COVID-19 infections as a self-test."

"How does he have skin in the game?"

Now you're just displaying your ignorance. Green bin time for you.

"Hey, just a thought, happened with BCN"

A factually incorrect and thoroughly inane thought... claiming Colin "doesn't have any skin in the game after all..."
