Surescreen CAN bid for the new tender, so AP talking ballocks again:

From Surescreen website:
"A swab is used to sample from either the nose or throat (nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal sample) and introduced into the test cassette by suspension in a buffer solution."

craiga24: Yes, I shouldn't have pulled you up on that, but I've since made up for it and now proudly feature on AP's filter list. He reminds me of the smart ass guy at school, who just won't stop rabbiting on...you know, the one you just want to beat to a pulp just to make him shut up. Harmless enough, I suppose, but very irritating.

jdt1990: Same thing happening in Russia with Sputnik vaccine. A friend told me they were supposed to be doing doctors and teachers first, but nobody turning up, hence wasting a lot of vaccines. Now, they're just giving it to whoever shows up.

Hats off to you enteleon. A very noble undertaking.

Funnily enough DOberman, I saved DOH's original quite brilliant post that led to that thread being deleted. I was so annoyed when I noticed it missing on my laptop. However, I hadn't refreshed chat on my mobile, so managed to save it. It was a late night post, so probably not a lot of people saw it.

DOH: "Just not sure where I’d go to write my rambling."
Just have a read of that book of short stories I recommended "The Most Beautiful Woman in Town".
(Original post got deleted, so just a reminder).
You could be the next Bukowski.

Apologies, never heard of a tiny-house before.

Was it a tiny homeless couple enteleon?

"You're wasted as a builder."
Slightly elitist, backhanded compliment.

When I saw the Abingdon RNS putting a rocket up MHRA's backside, I suspected that the small usability study must have been completed, since they wouldn't do that otherwise. I think it's very plausible that the Abingdon 'results' tweet is genuine. MHRA really have no excuse now to delay any further.

Brilliant DOH...pmsl

"bnought" is when you didn't buy anything.

That'd be the surge of Leningrad then DOH, as opposed to the siege.

Almost two hours since a juvenile AP post. Almost seems worth the drop.

Don’t think he’ll be too broke up about it. If true, it’s the best thing that could have happened for Omega.

I posted this earlier. Its the official NHS instructions for nurses taking self-test samples for the Innova test. It instructs them to take the sample as an anterior nasal swab. This seems quite strange, since the Innova test is not designed for this sampling method. Just wondering now if they’ve done this knowing they will soon be using a different LFT that requires anterior nasal sample. Queue Avacta.

Q20. Why is the testing method different from that described in the manufacturer’s original instructions for use?
We are recommending the swab is used and the sample taken in a different way to the instructions for use, with more rotation of the swab at a lower level of penetration, to enable easier self-administration of the test. This is based on advice from experts. The manufacturer has been informed of the planned use of the tests for self-administered asymptomatic staff testing within the NHS.

Just wondering if that guy that went from ODX to Avacta in October was part of this master plan.

He’s just changed his profile. Removed Avacta reference.

I think Arnold mentioned earlier, those flights are to pick up some tests from Wetherby.
