Wait till Havieron comes good.

Medexpress use PCR tests. If I can find anymore info tomorrow I will share it. Info from Gov website below about Rapid tests.

Some manufacturers are selling products containing COVID-19 testing kits that allow a swab or other type of sample to be taken at home or in the pharmacy setting, followed by a very rapid result within about 10 minutes.

These tests are different from the postal kits that are being used whereby the swab is taken by you at home and then returned by post or courier. (Refer to essential worker testing for more information.)

The current view by PHE is that use of products that give a very rapid result is not advised:

some of these products look for virus while others look for the body’s immune response to the virus. Such tests are very rapid and can work on a range of specimens including serum, plasma or finger-prick whole blood
there is little information on the accuracy of these rapid point of care tests, or on how a patient’s antibody response develops or changes during COVID-19 infection. It is not known whether either a positive or negative result is reliable
currently there is no published evidence about the suitability of these rapid point of care tests for diagnosing COVID-19 infection in a community setting

Wren Healthcare are using Primer Design for PCR testing. £400.00 for same day result, that is what I call taking advantage.

The University where I work uses these crap. Below is an answer to one of the FAQ's which confirms to me that they are more than likely to cause numerous more problems than they will solve.

The PCR test has a higher level of accuracy. If you test positive in the lateral flow test at the University’s facility but then negative in the follow-up PCR test then you are considered by NHS Test and Trace to be negative for Covid-19. This means that you would not need to self-isolate.

Obelix, I think we will get information about sales on Friday.

I bet a pound to a pinch of sh*t this will be £9.50 by this Friday close.

If there is a bid in the background which would be leaked anyway, the big boys would want as many shares as possible at low prices so by the time the offer had been broadcast to the public and then negotiated upwards, they would make maximum profit. We all know how devious share trading is by those in the know.

I bet there will be a lot of very large after hours trades today which will show up tomorrow

I think Novacyt have already got this covered.

I don't know about a new variant but I do know there has been a few deviants in this chat room over the years, I think there might be one on here today.

Tiptree, I'm just down the road in Silver End.

Hi Tiptree, I moved to Hargreaves Lansdown. Do you actually live in Tiptree?

gige, I can't agrre more about AJB, they also charge a lot of fees that others don't, I was glad to get away from them, it has saved me a hell of a lot of money.

Antibody, not Anitbody

I am already in a Covid trial at the University where I work (Queen Mary University of London), had an anitbody test a couple of days ago as part of the trial.
