Shame and disgust!6 Aug 2021 21:31
As an avacta share holder of some 18months I am disgusted at the time this has taken. The Govt are only in anything for profit and are an absolute disgrace. I’m driving back to UK next week through the below countries from Germany
todays figures:
UK cases 31808. deaths 92
Germany. 1816. 4
Belgium 1943. 6
Nederlands 2902. 8
The Uk despite being ahead in the vaccine race have a case and death rate 15 times higher. Germany got moved to the green list from sunday ( a month late) but Belgium and Holland and indeed France (who still have a high rate too) remain on the amber list so i’ll be quarantining and doing a day 2 and day8 test from home.
Tests are free in Germany and any furloughed business has had the opportunity to become a test center. as a result there are literally dozens within walking distance, where you can get an administered LfD test with over 98 ss with a certificate with all the required confirmations. a pcr test for about 40 Euros , expressed (3.5hrs) for 100Euros. The LFT’s are ever changing depending on availability of supplies but specificity is always over the level required to use them as a green light test.
As a result Germany (at least in Berlin where i am) are picking up all their asymptomatic cases and the economy has been largely back to normal for some time with the whole population qualifying for a free administered test daily. All bars and restaurants etc require an LFT negative result or a double jab, masks still worn on transport and shops etc.
The UK have thrown this opportunity away by going with a defunct LFT which no doubt is imported and supplied by some crony or another and have stated they are not to be used as a green light test. no all other LFT’s have been stifled for use as a green light test forcing all to use PCR tests in a controlled market.
Any of the listed PCR testing companies with a catchy ‘118 test ’ type title are thought to be the same small group of companies (Which). Huge amounts of both public funds and Individual private money is being spent on a system and tests that are not fit for the purpose of green lighting travel or the economy. but are generating Billions for those dealing in them.
I am a holder of AVCT, NCYT,ODX,GDR,BHR,DVRG,SNG,RMS,YGEN,ABDX,TILS,MHC,KMK,VRS. All largely British companies with something to offer, in some cases best in class, the fight against Covid and all have been shafted, passed over, hindered or ignored.
We are 18months into a global pandemic, this is the modern age, the only conclusion that can be truly reached is that Boris and his fellow “Quockerdogers” have done an almighty turd in their collective union jack underpants.
They know no shame, people continue to die or have their lives unnecessarily and badly affected.
meanwhile good, possibly great british companies are still floundering at the first hurdle.
I continue to hold and add here and hope that the truth will eventually
