Highlights from this day
  • relabel_watch — sorry to jump in has anyone ever offered to pay for verification a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited 14:48
  • relabel_watch — we have never revoked on a single result. we have revoked on a pattern, n of 1 obviously 16:36
  • knees_first — what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine 17:45

verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted

if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score

LN

follow up a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all

RW

the log is readable chronologically and that is deliberate. the trajectory matters more than the current line

LN

for the archive the lot number on the certificate does not match my vial, what now

RW

log it either way

does a supplier certificate on its own count for anything

Reminder for luerlok: dose day is today. Set 7 days ago.

somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log

LU

the point of the standard is that it applies to suppliers we like as well as ones we do not

💀1

coming back after 6 months, has the standard changed

how many independent results does a supplier need

verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently

never for sale

i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier

is a screenshot of a report ever acceptable

the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division

a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record

what happens to the log entry when a supplier improves

what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine

what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises

two labs disagree on the same lot, which one goes in the log

LU

if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution

is the verification log the same thing as a recommendation

does QYB being verified mean my vial is fine
