Johnson in Minor Car Crash as Protester Halts Convoy in London

A spokesman for Johnson’s office confirmed that video on social media showed the premier’s car with a dent in the back. The security convoy stopped briefly when a protester rushed in front, causing the vehicles to back-up and leading to the collision.

There were no reports of anyone being injured in the crash, the spokesman said.

Stock Alert: Chembio Diagnostics Down As FDA Revokes EUA Of Its Covid-19 Test

Shares of Chembio Diagnostics, Inc. (CEMI) tanked more than 60% Wednesday morning after the FDA revoked the emergency use authorization (EUA) of the company’s Covid-19 antibody test, due to performance concerns with the accuracy of the test.

Data submitted by Chembio as well as an independent evaluation of the Chembio test at NCI showed that the company’s SARS-CoV-2 antibody test, DPP COVID-19 IgM/IgG System shows higher false results than expected and that reflected in the authorized labeling for the device.

The Chembio antibody test was one of the first antibody tests authorized by the FDA during the COVID-19 public health emergency.

Chembio Diagnostics stock is currently trading at $3.96. It has traded in the range of $2.25- $15.89 in the past 52 weeks.
