Yes i do believe they will, if there was an election in 3 months Boris is toast, no question. Even if there was an election at the end of the year he would still be toast.
I genuinely believe that the perfect test doesnt exist atm, Everybody is trying, raw materials are hard to find, pharmas are working flat out because more than us they know its their pay day. Off the back of covid they can fund their 'day jobs' for the next 5 years. Look at AVCT, they raised 48m in a placing and used 35 of that for the day job.
For now all focus is on testing, the only issue is shareholders being impatient and thats causing volatility in the SP. Even after a vaccine they'll still tests. They cant guarantee it wont come back in the winter, they wont know if immunity last after having antibodies.
Also i can see that gov will stockpile tests for the winter for when / if wave two comes. It would be unbelievable if they didnt stockpile everything given what we have just gone through. Even if it means they need to bin it if we dont use it.
Just a FYI, all PPE and medical consumables have use by dates. Bear that in mind, so its not a case of they lose money on unused tests, they already lose money on all PPE and other bits n bobs.
