Its been 10years of lying about a box that goes beep, takes some blood and performs 2 of the 200 tests it purports to be able to do.
We have lost Theranos staff to suicide, we’ve had lawsuits, we’ve had political and influential people investing, we’ve gone from raising $6million in a year to now being valued at $9billion.

Enter the chat John Carrey-you the lead medical investigative journalist at the Wall Street Journal.
