The masks are a prelude to bigger things. The access DCTA has to labs is second to none. Do not underestimate how difficult it is to get (level 3) lab time to test with live SARS-COV-2 virus. Remember sars is the virus covid 19 is the disease, sars has many strains.
The bigger picture here is the aerosolisation of the virus and the ability of DCTA tech to take virus out of the atmosphere with its filtration system.
The aerosoling has been understated since January. Govts are only just coming around to it. It’s why we have to wear masks. It’s probably the most understated transmission factor.
Dcta are looking to put their tech into aircon units, think aeroplanes, supermarkets, cruise ships, gyms. Think duty of care. It could eventually become law to have this tech. We are proving and patenting it.
Testing will obviously help but even gold plated PCR swab testing whilst 100% accurate on test is 30% off because users don’t take the correct swabs

Aerosoling..
‘The case studies that have come out in different countries have, with prima facie evidence, manifested that the airborne transmission plays a profound role in contracting susceptible hosts. The infection propensities in confined spaces (airplane, passenger car, and healthcare center) by the transmission of droplets and aerosols under varying ventilation conditions were discussed.’

PCR swab...
“The test is a swab of your nose and throat undertaken at one of the Trust testing sites. The test is not 100% accurate; at present it is thought to detect approximately 70% of coronavirusi infections..”

‘The only current COVID-19 specific data comparing OP with NP comes from two low quality, non-peer-reviewed studies and should be viewed with caution. It is not possible to accurately assess sensitivity from the existing data and there are no data to assess the diagnostic impact of combining both tests.’

So the point is whilst testing will help, masks will help, social distancing can’t go on forever, lockdowns aren’t economically feasible so it leads to technology as being the solution.
I have been invested here for probably 3 years now. It’s just a factor of investing that you can be ahead of the market and the sp will do nothing then in one or two sessions it rockets and if you are out you miss the biggest gains. I sat in DDDD, TXP, ORPH as just a few examples for what seemed like ages, now they have had the news and the sp has gone up significantly I seldom post there. There’s little point!
I am convinced that with all the shots on goal Dcta has our time will come and we can watch from a distance!
