Thanks Cambridgedon. All sorts of people will no doubt come and go on here, but sometimes I just don't want to, or indeed need to, get into any debate/response.

As EKF's CEO, Julian Baines, told those at the meeting back in December (only a handful of us were in attendance), he was confident that the opportunities presenting to EKF (which are many beyond Covid-19) will ultimately deliver to investors over time, and referred to the share price trend this year as an example.

And that's what this thread is mainly about i.e. understanding/discussing the long term investment proposition in EKF. I have said previously that it's absolutely fine seeing/reading alternative views, but short term trading opportunities (either way) is not likely to get much traction/discussion on this thread.

That's not to suggest the likes of Tongosti should stop posting, it's just that short term is really not of much interest to most readers, hence a predominantly zero response policy from me, even when being goaded/provoked.

EU must prepare for ‘era of pandemics’, von der Leyen says

28th February 2021
Commission president seeks to mirror US with health ‘authority’ to speed up reaction to medical crises

Europe must prepare its medical sector to cope with an “era of pandemics”, the European Commission president said, as she warned the bloc was still in its most difficult period for Covid-19 vaccine deliveries. 

Ursula von der Leyen told the Financial Times that the EU could not afford to sit still even once Covid-19 has been overcome, as she described her plans for a Europewide fast-reaction system designed to respond more quickly to emerging medical threats.

I have not got premium access for the following article, can anyone oblige and perhaps provide some further context -

26th February 2021
Reference Labs Take Diverse Approaches to Mitigating COVID-19 Sample Shipping Delays

"Delays in shipping are certainly a problem for sample stability — not just for COVID-19 testing, but also for lots of different samples for lab tests"

transport media — specifically PrimeStore MTM from Longhorn Vaccines and Diagnostics — that preserves samples for significantly longer.

You are really great at reading other people's posts. What school did you go to? Lol.

[tongosti] 26/2/2021 18:56

[tongosti] 26/2/2021 18:49

You mean me making 50% in a few weeks and switching all into cash before the stock had a second wind?Missed opportunity - so what?Except yourself of course, are you aware of anyone else in this universe who doesn't miss a single opportunity? Lol.

I note that earlier this week Novacyt announced the launch of its next generation high-throughput PCR test for COVID-19 (COVIDHT Direct), which has been CE Mark approved.

• The new COVID-HT Direct uses pharyngeal swabs collected in viral transport media (without guanidine)and saline

So this should be applicable to samples collected in PrimeStore ATM, which does not contain guanidine.

I also note that it's extraction-free -

Launch of CE Mark COVID-HT Direct
Novacyt announces the launch of its next generation high-throughput PCR test for COVID19 (COVID-HT Direct), which has been CE Mark approved using independent validated data. This follows the launch of the Company’s first high-throughput PCR test for COVID19 (COVID-HT) in June 2020. The new test eliminates the need for automated extraction systems in a high-volume PCR laboratory, reducing processing time, cost and labour of testing by up to 30%. The new COVID-HT Direct uses pharyngeal swabs collected in viral transport media (without guanidine) and saline. COVID-HT Direct is already in use at one of the UK’s Lighthouse laboratories and is being validated for use with private highthroughput PCR laboratory partners.

He's not stupid. He's just a troll.

[tongosti] 26/2/2021 14:08

Excellent timing Joe - ekf falling out of bed. Ah no!!!

[mg1982] 26/2/2021 14:05

Tong,

I am convinced that there is only one reason why you are behaving like this.

You are too thick for you own good.

Market is down and smallcaps are being hit harder than usual. Maybe it has something to do with IGindex' new regs but I believe it is temporary.

Please see a doctor about your mental health.

We need to save you from your own stupidity.

[tongosti] 26/2/2021 11:14

Wan - what happened today fella? Can't take your eye off the ball chief ... come on!

[tongosti] 25/2/2021 12:29

DHL Global Forwarding Partners Longhorn Vaccines & Diagnostics to Assure Safety and Efficacy of Lab Testing in Africa and Asia

By DHL, Media OutReach
25th February 2021

*DHL has transported nearly 26,000 Covid -19 testing vials for Longhorn, who is donating one million vials to the International Organization for Migration

*Vials were transported via three initial flights from Indianapolis to Kenya, Nepal and the Philippines, supporting emerging markets in the process

*Life-saving transports will help COVID-19 testing of refugees and displaced persons


SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 25 February 2021 - DHL Global Forwarding, the air and ocean freight specialist of Deutsche Post DHL Group, has partnered with Longhorn Vaccines & Diagnostics, an innovative molecular tool, assay and vaccine development company focused on serving unmet critical needs in both developed and developing nations, to deliver much-needed Covid-19 testing vials to the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Kenya, Nepal and the Philippines.
By DHL, Media OutReach

"Once we coordinated the donation of one million PrimeStore® MTM sample collection devices with the IOM, we needed to manage the logistics of such a large endeavor," stated Jeff Fischer President of Longhorn Vaccines and Diagnostics. "PrimeStore® MTM inactivates SARS-CoV-2 during collection and transit, which can reduce the need for safety cabinets and reduce the time between collection and results. With the need to ship to different countries on multiple continents and traverse to varied customs requirements, DHL was the clear choice given the importance of reliable transportation in the testing process."
