Slow news day? The real deal? End of the world? 
 

They’re saying it probably came from an animal, has Somebody been shagging monkeys again?

Agreed, this is when they should be moving forward. It's an odd one this share, as it moves around on no RNS, and then when there is an RNS it just goes backwards. All very odd.

 

There's a big release of these tests on 15th February, official news will come anyway. Will forward a document later via PM with dates etc coming up. NHS have done a coded app for them too, plus there is a billion pound monitoring scheme re pin prick tests which will last 2 years. If they're spending a billion on monitoring etc, how much are they spending on the actual kits ?

I was did bail out at just over £1, and was lucky to make near enough £5K - I wasn't being smart or anything, I just needed the cash as I was moving house......and I confirmed with @miamiwhite at the time, I'm not after timing here 🙂. If I could have at the time, I'd have left the money in ODX, as it was on the march and looking good, but I needed to sell

I've still got 1064 shares left in ODX, so I'll just let them ride, and look to top skim if they hit £1.42, but I'm not so sure they'll hit above £1 again anytime soon

Check PM re the dates, same with the Ginger Whinger

Going in the right direction

 

Week on week up by about 50%.

Hopefully hit 10m tomorrow. 

Apologies, whacked this in the wrong place.... some figures that came out about Rona. Looks like I've dodged the mass testing bullet for now. 

The EU is only second to India in its amount of vaccine's pruchased, but is top overall in the amount of global share it's purchased at nearly 22% of the world's vaccines.

We are the fourth single nation in amounts purchased beind India, USA and Canada with nearly 5% of the world's vaccines. Canada has reserved the highest number of doses per person with 350 milion vaccinations - apparently it works out at 9 doses per person.

We have ordered 357 million, our population is 67 million (rounded up) which is about 5 per person or thereabouts if my fingers are counting correctly.

The EU (without us) has a popluation of 448 million, they have ordered 1.5 billion doses which is about 3 per person roughly?

So, basically everyone is fine. Even with my shitty maths.

The SA variant.

Genuine problem or red herring to keep people on their toes?

Both

Wouldn't be doing this extra targeted testing if it wasn't a concern. 

Nor stopped regular travel.

If it does reduce the overall effectiveness of our current vaccines, then it makes sense to get right on top of it.

Very encouraging update from Israel

Things look like they're starting to turn a corner again at the hospital after a rough couple of weeks. Not out of the woods quite yet but fingers crossed!

Amazing how many of our 'housebound' patients have been able to get to the health centres for vaccinations. I'm on a discharge to treatment room mission! 😂

Lockdown has started to have an effect on the numbers being admitted. 

Or at least it seems so have.

You mean to tell me Hospitals aren’t empty like the cranks on FB are saying. 
 

Glad to hear things are looking more positive. Hats off to you all 👏🏻

Off my first test.

Not been this nervous about a test since the GUM clinic after benners 

200 million lateral flow tests to be rolled out from mid February to March, that is some testing.

Certainly stepping it up now

Nah - it's just there in case the tube leaks any fluid. Hopefully they will just process it anyway! 👍
