Theranos: BUSTED!!! (Patreon)
Content
Theranos is HANDS DOWN the biggest scam I’ve ever looked at. At its zenith their valuation was about 9 billion dollars- all based on lies. It does however seem that the founder, one Elizabeth Holmes was a ‘true believer’. I think there are proverbs about this sort of person and the path to hell being paved with good intentions! If the blood tests didn’t work, then people simply weren’t trying hard enough, and maybe she should fire them in order to get someone in who believed in the project more. This is all very good and well unless the project is obviously BLOODY IMPOSSIBLE!!! However with the full faith that what she was doing was brilliant, and would save the world, she went and told people it was brilliant, it worked, and would save the world, again and again and again. The lies that she told are kind of sickening. She said she wouldn’t be using it if she wasn’t ABSOLUTELY certain it was safe enough to give her mother the right results. –wow!
