I think there's room for multiple UK developed, DHSC selected, tests.
The performance of SureScreen is very good.
Mologic's has now been assessed a number of times, independently, and proven consistent in S&S, time for results, and for me most importantly the sampling method is proving easy to use with no impact to results when self testing.
Avacta still have some way to go I think, in terms of CE marking/validation/independent testing/self test approval etc..
SureScreen appear to be ahead of the game (given they has had 2 orders to date), but the sampling method is not ideal.
Mologic is now, for me, the test the Gov need to be choosing, but let's not forget that it bodes very well for the DHSC selected test, but more so for our UK and International market with the Visitect branded test.
My hands are already numb for having sat on them so long, retaining my ODX holding... but today is an easy sitting on hands day.
