What did Cellmid announce?
Friday was a busy day for Cellmid with three announcements being made that are impacting its future. First was the announcement of a supply agreement being made for a COVID-19 rapid diagnostic test. The test is available immediately and is suitable as a bedside test can be used in hospitals, nursing homes, schools, etc. according to the company.
Given the current climate around the world this is important for Cellmid. Further announcements were made with a market update on COVID-19 and notice to lift the trading halt.

With the Cellmid price now rocketing up on the new announcements, how high can it go? Cellmid has historical resistance levels at $0.32 and $0.36 but if it pushed through these, the next historical level is $0.46, can Cellmid get up there?
More updates from the company will provide some clarity.
