Pl75 - so are you ruling out ambitions to sell the Avacta test for self testing?
Perhaps you should warn Medusa

Thank you Ben. I seems we don’t know the answer. My simplistic hopeful view is that the Affimer is so specific it cannot be fooled by any everyday kitchen cupboard alkaline or acids. It would be definitely be a good USP if tampering with the Innova test is becoming rife among this seeking time off school or work. I’m also thinking destructive product testing is normal for something intended to become world beating. Maybe Medusa are covering this.

Mr A, clearly it wasn’t serious. But it wasn’t a good joke either. A waste of bulletin board space to a question that I thought deserved a serious answer. If no one knows the answer and those in the mix who read this can find out, then if they can say our test cannot be tampered with to give a positive result then it seems we have another contract winning USP.

Doggy, are you sure it is possible to frig a +ve from the Avacta test using orange juice? How do you know? I was hoping someone would know it was not possible and this would be a good USP.

Sorry if already discussed. But I’m hearing schoolchildren and employees know how to make the current LFT read +ve. Anyone know if our test can be frigged to read +ve?

Both employers and employees have responsibilities under the HSAW Act. It maybe reasonable to request employees test themselves coupled with random testing by employers. A bit like employees required not to work in some jobs while under the influence of alcohol and or drugs.

Gaza - no connections with accountancy exams.
Larsh - agree with all you say. But would you have told an investor something is imminent or shortly? Or would you have used network analysis, told them what the critical path is, the risk hurdles to achieve success and given best estimate target dates with ball park contingency allowances?

That was my investor suggestion.
To give investors estimated probability values for achieving target dates.
Network analysis, critical paths, Gantt charts.
Is that too much to ask?

For transport of test kits to homes and then onto laboratories! From September!

The tolerability of risk was the subject of much research as part of the Sizewell inquiry. Publications are available via the HSE.
Patients, employees, employers need to keep risks as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). In my view vaccinated and tested care workers will be needed to satisfy ALARP.

I hear that Spain’s tourism board have just been allocated 8 million Euro to woo the Germans to take their summer vacation in Spain. So maybe they will be prepared to buy the best LFT to help boost tourism there.

Ethan Hunt aka Scardey_Cat / Robo.

Can this be true? On Spanish TV news this afternoon.

I think TL is suggesting someone within the Avacta organisation needs to learn something about critical paths etc.

Could be coincidence but positive MM tweet at 9.27am.

It does indeed look like his view has changed from total negativity on LFTs to one that is more optimistic. Perhaps he listens, eventually.

The BBC and others have greater interest in decorating a London Council flat as they think it has greater national importance.

From AVCT Thursday RNS. ‘Other’ maybe NCYT.
The collaboration with Mologic also provides initial manufacturing capacity with the benefit of a short set-up time for the lateral flow test with Global Access Diagnostics ('GAD'), in addition to the agreements with BBI Group, Abingdon Health and others, that will provide manufacturing capabilities that can be scaled to several millions of tests per month.

Now getting annoyed with it looking likely the EU will beat the U.K. to our LFT. Then when manufacturing capacity cannot match U.K. demand who will they blame? EU will just smile.
