First they think you're crazy... and then they find out you are actually crazy.
-
Mark Zuckerberg’s dead eyes, Steve Jobs’ black turtle necks, voice of Megatron. Seems legit.
-
Imagine how her two children will feel when they find out that they were conceived in an effort to reduce or prevent their rotten mother from going to prison.
-
I worked at Walgreens when this was going on. It was embarrassing and disturbing. Walgreens poured money into this company and, at the same time, slashed store budgets and staff. They gutted their Frontline for a scam, then blamed the frontline when they realized they got conned and sales started slumping. They're still making cuts to this day trying to recover the lost money.
-
Yeah the first red flag is that she dropped out of school to create medical tech with basically no medical knowledge
-
instead of going into medicine, this lady should've been a politician. she would have killed it.
-
This will never get old. It's like an adult bedtime story 😆
-
As a pathologist its absolutely insane to me that anyone bought this. One drop of blood isnt even sufficient for basic cell counts in the automated machine and even in those there's things we should be weary like the effect of lipemia (one of the reasons you need to be fasted for your analysis) not to mention biochemistry and endocrinology. This isn't possible with such little sample

Her dad was...an ENRON executive. 😂 He taught his daughter well.
-
Meanwhile somewhere in the U.S. an honest business owner is struggling to make ends meet. smh
-
There were two main whistleblowers, Erika Cheung (who is always erased from the narrative - here she was displayed but not even named) and Tyler Shultz. They both faced severe pressure because they decided to speak up.
-
Shoutout to Erika Cheung, one of the main whistleblowers who isnt mentioned here. She didnt have the resources and safety net Tyler Shultz had, and spoke out anyway.
-
Billionaire, without selling a thing, life is crazy.
-
I’m a medical laboratory professional, and I can tell you that not everyone was taken in by Elizabeth Holmes. The medical laboratory community was crying foul from the very beginning.
-
"Bad Blood," the book by WSJ reporter John Carreyrou, is really good if you want to dig even deeper. Holmes didn't hesitate to go after Tyler Schultz through his own family - there's an incident where he goes to visit his grandfather (George Schultz) to try again to warn him, and he gets ambushed by Theranos lawyers who were already WAITING IN THE HOUSE.
-
A simple traditional blood picture test doesn't take "a few days" as said here. It takes 20 minutes. It just takes a few days if you have to send it in and wait for the paperwork to come back. Urgent tests at hospitals can be done very quickly.
-
Imagine a founder of a medical company in her early 20’s with no medical training
-
As a polititician she would be f***ing rich now and in a high position...
-
This was the equivalent of saying you will solve nuclear fusion within the next years. As a medical doctor in lab medicine I am really astonished by the naivity of the investors.

"On November 18, 2022, she was sentenced to serve 11+1⁄4 years (135 months) in prison." WHEW. Serves ya right!
