QDEL to be replaced !
QDEL has dropped 21% since its ATH on August 6th. Investors are seeing dark clouds ahead for this former darling (all due to more stringent testing measures) and are now plowing their cash into SONA since the shorter scare last week !
We will soon flip our share price with QDEL !
The next time we hit $16.05 will be the last time ! North straight up from there !

QDEL got hammered today because of the faults positive, the saliva test from Columbia U has a catch 22 problem. The sample taken needs to be kept at 63 degrees for 30 mins, to high of a temp during that period and it kills the virus to low and the virus count doesn't reach the required number to be detected. My guess the FDA will likely allow it in controlled conditions like hospitals.

Keep in mind Quidel's test has not been officially approved by the FDA. It is available because the FDA has granted emergency use authorization. And that means the usual rigorous testing and vetting has not happened, and accuracy results have not been widely published

This might explain the sudden drop in Quidel's sp. https://www.marketbeat.com/articles/ohio-governors-covid-19-results-show-tests-imperfections-2020-08-07/?1 The door opens ever wider for Sona.

You are probably right about the dark clouds due to more stringent testing measures but I also think it's because of (you guessed it) the SEEKING ALPHA article that was written not too long ago. I got to admit that those people really now how to drop a stock. A$$holes.
