I had a look on the ODX board the other day, they seem to think they will be the "sovereign test".
Is that why AS mentioned Europe? But I read the opinions here that us and Mologics own are the only two in the frame for the UK test.
Can anyone sum up why ODX holders are excited?

"Cytiva are owned by Danaher and according to the Danaher website they do manufacture.
They are a huge American conglomerate who are very big on acquisitions."

As I read this for the second time, I thought Knotagain ??

Vegas, March/April for the long awaited "gold standard test to materialise, then hold until the SP hits it's top! ?? (2025?)

I agree, I piled in 1st thing, thinking we would be back above 150-160. It could be too much crying wolf, but I'm inclined to think the wider would outside the BB's haven't heard of us, ODX seem to have stolen our thunder too, up a third!
I expect this will be a slow burner, but will take off soon, anyway, like most here it seems, I'm in for the longer haul, glad I was able to max out my available cash at a reasonable price.
Roll on March/April!

@ Merchant Banker and others,
Now the LFT seems to be definitely coming, I like others here have been hoping we get a slice of the 900 million odd UK gov contract, then it hit me, the RNS mentioned teaming up in part to produce for low and middle income Countries.
Someone has already posted this link from Mologics site,
https://wellcome.org/grant-funding/guidance/low-and-middle-income-countries
So I did a quick search,
https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/population-by-country/
Started adding up potential customers in my head, I got through A's and B's, and got to half a billion before I got to China! (1.4B), anyway, roughly just short of 6 Billion people in that list.
So MB, I agree AVCT might only make a few (hopefully 10's) of pence per test, but this could be a "pile them high, sell them cheap" money maker. Don't forget, there was the RNS mentioning a far east manufacturer as well.
I remember people here saying we will sell all we can make, I can see this being the case.

Well this is the RNS I have been waiting for. OK, could have been even better, (Confirmation of UK gov contract, tests being made and on sale next month etc)
But as I read it, with Mologics help, we will be in the market by April, and worldwide!
I have just thrown the kitchen sink at it, and was happy to get in at 139, I expected it to race to 150's, and be £2 once the news breaks to the general public who haven't heard of Awacta!

Thanks Kp,
They have been doing this for years, nice explanation of the difference between covered and naked.
"Professional" derampers!

Boris was on Andrew Marr this morning and mentioned lateral flow tests, twice because he got interrupted!
Like all (holders) on here, I am hoping the gov are seeing how well Avacta's LFT's are looking, and are eager. Of course it could be they are buying the Chinese ones and are happy!

I hope this is good for Avacta, in that the government are really getting behind LFTs.
However, as the price drop this morning shows, most in the market are seeing it as a sign Aptamer group are winning the race for LFTs for the UK gov. Do I understand correctly, (anyone?), we are doing our own validation?

@ scardy cat
Blame the lawyers

I've just looked at the press briefing after reading this thread, and my analysis is the questioner asked about half a dozen questions, or parts of questions, and the LFD part was first and got drowned by the rest.
The scientist was too busy answering some of the other points, and Boris kind of passed on it by saying in effect "up to the MHRA",

Is it us?!!
