Our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode with QuotedData's Edward Marten has just been released. Listen here.
So you don't believe the sp will be higher than 108p in 12 months time from today. Which leads on to suggest you don't believe the dividend will be reinstated in the same time frame.
Hmmmm, okay.
Maybe premature but seems to holding its own.
Yep...liking this.
Another 50K purchase @ 104.5p by a director. That's 2 now in virtually a week. Shareholder confidence growing. Buyback very nearly done. I expect an announcement end of March regarding next plan for returning value to shareholders. More bb or divi.
Investing today for a steady recovery.
Give the guy a chance. The cards are in his favour. Can't do any worse than the incumbent. Can he? :/
Recruitment market doing well. Coming out of covid globally. Things can only improve right?
Experience here says take the spikes of profit.
Nothing new I'm afraid. Possibly TB taking advantage of this morning's mood.
Second chance for some bottom fishing sub 150p. Oversold.
Concur with the positive comments here. Back to circa £2 near term.
The response re social media was pants, to be frank.
And are you happy with the answers?
According to recent NHS statistics, although figures vary, around 100,000 people are admitted to hospital with sepsis in the UK each year – and around 37,000 of those die from the condition.
A recent article in the Lancet put global figures for 2017 at an estimated 48.9 million cases of sepsis and 11 million sepsis-related deaths. Of those who survive, 40% will suffer permanent, life-changing after effects.
That was before the impact of Covid-19 on peoples’ health, and of course on our health system, which now finds itself battling a backlog of cases where people have missed out on vital tests, assessments and treatment.
According to The UK Sepsis Trust, Covid-19 itself can also cause sepsis.
It recently issued a stark warning, saying it believes around 20,000 people who have survived Covid-19 and been discharged from hospital are likely to develop sepsis within 12 months. That is a figure which is hugely worrying – and potentially life threatening for many.
It has called on the UK Government to lead an awareness campaign about Sepsis – which kills more people a year than breast, bowel and prostate cancer combined – to make it an immediate consideration when anybody becomes unexpectedly, and suddenly ill.
It says a simple awareness campaign, using its own recent ‘Just Ask: Could it be Sepsis?’ message, could not only save the NHS thousands in treatment costs, but more importantly could save thousands of lives.
Sepsis – a killer we see missed by many on a day to day basis
It is a killer that is repeatedly missed by many, and sadly that often extends beyond families to GPs and hospital doctors and nurses, who simply don’t spot the signs early enough and take appropriate medical steps.
This is because patients diagnosed with sepsis and treated within the first hour have an 80% chance of surviving, but after six hours without treatment, those chances of survival can reduce to as little as 30%.
Sepsis occurs through aggressive infections, or when people have a weakened immune system.
It spreads extremely quickly to other areas of the body, causing the immune system to react. Oxygen levels in the blood supply can decrease and be prevented from reaching vital organs, causing blood pressure to drop and septic shock.
The very young, very old, diabetics, pregnant women and those who have recently given birth are at increased risk, whilst people are more likely to develop sepsis after a viral illness like a cold, or a minor injury.
This last 18 months where we have all become hugely aware of a new killer in our community and on our hospital wards, we mustn’t lose sight of the danger sepsis poses to us all, as it can quickly develop from the most minor illness or injury.
The folk selling are possibly the same who are panic buying petrol! I don't get why you would hold for this long and sell as news is imminent.
Some friendly advice. You need to make it your business to know how to read these holding RNS releases and understand them, if only at basic level.
StarK. Have a word with yourself mate.
Oh please stop.
oh brother!
