Seems to be the day for it! I had to go in today too the cheeky blighters.

you been on the pop Ophidian?

hello! is that you zebedee?

Yes, its frustrating ans Sir Al probably shouldn't have used all these terms that would obviously be interpreted as "we'll tell you tomorrow"
But in the scientific breakthrough world "very shortly" probably equates to 3 months

its frustrating waiting and Sir Al should probably have not used the various terms which we have interpreted as "we'll tell you tomorrow" but in huge medical advances terms "very Shortly" is probably 3 months

Posted this yesterday as a Sona comparison but here it is again:

We were informed via RNS this:
"These data show that the test strips detect the spike protein in model samples at concentrations within the clinical range found in saliva of patients with COVID-19. Work continues now to refine the test strip design, optimise its performance and get the best detection limit possible in order to generate the highest sensitivity in the final rapid test product."

That was 6 weeks ago.

looking at Sona's news flow (who IMO are the best comparison we have) on 12th may they released very similar news. 7 weeks later they released their validation results ....

So I would surmise that we are not far off, but we have the added neutralising requirement to add to the device too.

Doggy doggy stop talking, it's all on the link PL75 just posted ;)

The vendetta is a bit boring now to be honest.

@Ophidian you said you'd post what your thoughts were on timelines now. I'm interested to know?

September is 4 weeks away

And to think, pl75 is on most lists as a deramping scumbag. He just hides it very very well

Wahey we are sorted, good luck with your 90 min garbage test England :)

Thought I'd post again because I'm bored of the wyndrum thread.

Wyndrum, seriously! I think you should stick to the building society to keep your cash safe, or maybe hide it under the bed

this'll be interesting....

great post Foxo

;)

wouldn't bother with them if I were you

On the day of our mega news, will the press already have published the story in the morning before the 7am RNS?

that was how SNG played out I think, which kind of suggests that RNS's are known about before published?

or is it just as its outside trading hours they can inform the press early

see Badeli's response:

the comparison with Sono is a sensible one and the 7 weeks taken by them to optimise their results seems perfectly reasonable. The timeframe of PIs looking for a swift return compared to that of professional biochemists ensuring that whatever they publish can stand up to international scientific scrutiny and lead to a therapy which will have a positive impact on the fight against Covid-19 is totally different. Dr Al uses words and phrase like 'soon', 'a few weeks' etc without any thoughts of the impact he might have on discussion boards like this! He needs to get it right and science takes as long as science takes! Investors will realise this and are thinking of the share-price in 3 months'time, not this afternoon.

sharp as ever Global ;)
