NO holes picked, I aleady posted that its' good news. The bit about the gov contract was not in the RNS, but again the twitter account goes awol and indicates this contract has some bearing on the gov contract.

"Lansdown is the global distribution and strategic adviser to Omega Diagnostics Group PLC. "

So It appears like me, no one knows how a commerical sale order for 750K professional use tests satisfies a contractual obligation within the contract to HMG for home use tests.

Nice bit of communications from ODX.

so..you don't know then ?

I'd need to reread the contract, I wonder was there some stipulation that they had to show the could get independent volume orders ?

"Additionally, this agreement with @DAMHealth allows us to honour our existing contractual commitments to
@DHSCgovuk"

What the hell does that mean, and if it is price significant, why isn't it in the RNS. Typical ODX, even on the first time in over a year that they announce an order, they go muddy the waters by attaching some obtuse relationship to the gov agreement, but leave it completely unclear, and don't tell the market.

Oke,

The distributor is sell @£2.90 in quantities of 12K

The distributor is making a profit on that price.

Another outlet:-
"https://www.flowflexrapidtest.com/product/single-flowflex-sars-cov-2-antigen-rapid-test/"

Is sell for £4.80 in quantities of 960.

Those seem consistent prices to me, and there is nothing to suggest they are clearance prices. I expect HMG are paying <£2 a pop, remember Mologic Covios test is priced at $2

Max.....you posted a while back

"And we have replaced the infamous INNOVA Chinese tests now with the ACON Biotech Chinese self home test. Unbelievable. Maybe if we rebrand UK tests as, Made in China, we might actually get a test into the market......."

Who paid you to post that ?...where you enemy no 1 that day ?

Nice research and discussion from the usual suspects, ...no wait...the last posts were just bi*ching about me, why exactly did they come here log in and post, if not to further the discussion ?

They'd rather put their hands over their ears than actually know and accept the real situation.

Everything I said was relevant info to the LFT market place, and facts backed up with links.

Everything they said was just trash talk.

As I said, flowflex is the new innova, and potentially will surpass their volumes.

HMG buy £105M in Sept.

"Surescreen's contract is for 20M tests as per the gov contract".
That was the original contract, the new contract was £503M (mind you probably like ODX it'll be "up to")
https://bidstats.uk/tenders/2021/W10/746651676

Surescreen have already received well over 100M from HMG.

"its cheaper to buy a UK test at twice the price £3-5 wholesale time the carriage is included from china. Not to mention the money going abroad out the economy."

Which is a wonderful statement right up until you forgot about the bit where surescreen got paid £5M in Sept where in the previous 3 months they got £20M+ a month. And thats the only uk test that HMG can hand out.

Oh, and anyone can buy they at bulk from a uk distributor £2.90 a pop in quantity of 12K
https://ukwholesales.co.uk/covid-test-kits/flowflex-sars-cov-2-covid-19-low-level-nasal-non-invasive-swab-antigen-rapid-test-kits/

Wonder what uk gov is paying for quantities of 12M a go ?

Nothing to Omega.
Surscreen got £5M. (26M in Aug)
and if there was any doubt that Medco (Flowflex) is the new Innova, Medco received £105M in Sept. (38M in August)

So much for the HMG commitment to UK manufacturers, significantly reducing orders to the only UK one that has supplied them, and at the same time ramping up flowflex.

why would you post stuff on twitter, delete it, post a video, delete it etc.

anyone with basic web skill can knock up a few pages that look good in pretty quick order, and a freebie bit of webspace is loads of room for such a thing.

things are bad enough with people getting into a later about a dodgy unattributable tweet that disappeared. Please tell me there is more substantial things than this.

"Just an observation that was missing from your update."

every single time FDA has been mentioned here over the last 6 months, it is always EUA, as that is what they are giving out in relation to LFT authorisations.

6 months later, you just decided it was worth mentioning :)

"emergency use"

I hope you are not under some impression that ODX/Mologic's submission is any different ?

"Omega Diagnostics Requests FDA Emergency Use Authorization for Rapid Covid-19 Test"
was the title of the RNS-non on the 2nd July.

I note that as well as Celltrion test, another test was approved for home use in the USA on the 21st oct.

Seems the big news yesterday was the £150K buy, well it musta been big news as it generated 5 different threads.

Appears even the happy clappers "its all going swiminningly well" brigade have run out of lather this last while. Finally coming to the conclusion that ODX is late, late, very late with orders. There is no NDA that is resulting in undeclared multi-million LFT output, never has been.

250K announced covid lft orders in 2020, zero announced covid lft orders in 2021.

It is now over a year since that antibody order was announced. In those 12 months, ODX announced covid lft output stands at 4800 a week. With the much vaunted 250+ employees, that's less than 3 announced covid lfts a day per employee.

Slowly slowy catch the sloth ?
