Journalists like Carreyrou need to be recognized well for such journalism. He potentially saved many lives and permanent injuries.
Hisham Talha What lives?
Journalist are profiteers! 'Nothing sells like bad news' is the media businesses mantra, after all. They lie, cheat, harass, threaten, intimate, blackmail and destroy other people's live to make money! The odd true story doesn't change their routinely evil behaviour.
Now, this media businessesman is now getting even more money by getting a book deal!
552mustang It's been reported that the blood tests were way off from bein accurate. A misdiagnosis can lead to wrong medication or no medication and both can be equally lethal. (Considering she promised to test various types of diseases)
@"guppy0112"- everyone'has to make money to live, don't they? You don't like it, then work to remove the profit-incentive that rewards bad behavior, be it an opportunist media or greedy business-people....until then you're just another hypocrite pissing-in-the-wind..... bloodsuckers like this need to be exposed and nullified.
Pulitzer worthy research. Please award this man for his painstaking work. Journalists like you are saviors. Respect.
What's Next for Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes?
Blinking lessons.
She is a truly disgusting person
the garbage bin for a start , for her concept. For her ? jail like Madoff got.
Ha!
Jail
Lol
She took fake it till you make it to a whole other level.
Ha my thought as well!
Go big or go home, I guess.
Yeah, but you don't do it when people's lives are at stake.
Imagine being a 'fake it, 'til you make it' heart surgeon: 'OK that's fifty dead out of fifty operations, but I'm definitely improving!'
I never liked that "Fake it till you make it" quote. What happened to true honesty and INTEGRITY?? Waaay too many fakes in this world who are hoping and crossing fingers that they "make it" someday! Makes me lose hope in humanity.
@@VMR8648 integrity? In 2019?
You do know who the us president is right?
Walgreens is highly indebted to this author. Had they gone nationwide with this enterprise they might have incurred untold damages from lawsuits.
They should have his portrait framed in gold in every store. LOL
Safeway lost millions on her and Walgreens reputation was soiled.
My question is why was Walgreens using the company without Theranos having proven their equipment/testing diagnostics work??? Where is the accountability?
@@mistinippert6293 It's called FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out. It's a major psychological impulse of every human being that investors have to be very conscious about when they choose companies in which to invest, and it's something that start-ups and other "new" investments prey upon.
Walgreens was terrified that if they didn't get an exclusive deal with Theranos, who was promising what could be one of the biggest innovations in biotech history, that Theranos would take that technology and partner with a Walgreens competitor, in particular their arch-rival CVS. That's why even though there were warning signs that something was wrong, the company went full steam ahead on this partnership.
Christopher G I know it’s such a shame. Completely irresponsible. The process should be patients before profit, not the other way around.
This guy is literally a life saver.
Don Folders wants more informed interviewers really badly. Don Folders is creepy!
Milo The Russian Blue Tyler Schultz, is a life saver, he was the whistleblower.
Milo The Russian Blue Tyler Schultz , was a life saver, he was the whistleblower.
I would like to see John write a book about NASA and all the money they make and waste that's tax Payers money but this book about Elizabeth Holmes is just Silicon Valley investors they knew they were at a risk when they invested with her.
It's a shame to see this John character going to make a lot of money off her mistakes
@"Arianna"- not as creepy as you're being, you crusty douche.
I have built a rocket ship to mars. Give your money investment. No you cant see the ship
Got the reference 😅
Does the flight have beverage service?
@@Art_thecl0wn 😂😂😂
sounds good, when is the party I have new designer clothes, shoes, purses to wear & arrive in a new Bentley Dawn for alllllll to see me! end w/ deranged scientist laugh 😂🤣😭
Want to team up? I've invented a rocket fuel that comes in a tiny capsule but has enough fuel in it to propel a rocket to Mars and back.
So basically a college dropout knows about blood analysis just as much as they know about time travel. Who knew?
Nikola Jevtic so weird to me, she can talk the talk, walk the walk, she must have been a corporate darling, an investor's dream? This small town girl is confused...
Nikola Jevtic she must have watched motivational videos and thought I would do it till her IQ spat on her face
I saw back to the future a long time before even going to college, so shows how much you know Nikola, little bitch.
Arianna, you should ask for a billion dollars to bring it to market. Just make sure to stare with intensity, and absolutely no blinking.
DID YOU KNOW that gram for gram, plastic shower-curtain rings are actually worth more than most world currencies? It's true. Only problem is that it's useless information, but I'll betcha any money that somebody with a barn full of plastic shower-curtain rings is SCHEMING right now.
I have watched several interviews with Mr. Carreyrou about his book. This is the best one. Scott is such an intelligent interviewer.
The green screen is super distracting to me but this is definitely a great interview nonetheless!
If this lunatic chick does NOT go to Jail then THAT'S a Crime of negligence from the Courts.
SHE HASNT BEEN CHARGED CRIMINALLY.... SHE IS NOT ON TRIAL....
I agree this chick should be behind bars
elizabeth holmes my nigga!
The Stuport She's a rich white woman. She's not going to jail.
Both her and Sunny needed to be in jail 2 years ago. It's very disturbing to see that she is still free.
Defrauding investors happens everyday but putting people's lives at risk is a whole different level of criminal behavior. She belongs in jail for a long time.
@Heywood Jablome on top of the sentence she should already be serving
@Heywood Jablome no…I think the pregnancy was planned to gain jury sympathy
Yup in 8 more days from now she will have to turn herself in to prison to serve her 11 year bid !!!
We need more real journalists like Carreyrou. Sadly they are almost extinct these days.
Conrad Black, Rupert Murdoch, and Ted Turner basically gutted and sent all real journalists to Siberia. My HS grad David Wellmans' news crew was gutted, so basically no field work allowed, which disables the research. He took a book contract and was nominated for a Pulitzer, but it became a different game. Now every Junior College sqeaky with ZERO LIFE EXPERIENCE think that if they call themselves a "journalist" that makes it so. The gutting occured long before the internet was even common use. WE're just seeing the effects now.
@@Dwightstjohn-fo8ki except Carreyrou works for Rupert Murdoch, who was himself defrauded by Holmes, so you best believe Carreyrou may have been Rupert's attack dog. Before this story broke through Carreyrou, Theranos' billionaire backers were already up Holmes' tailpipe.
Yes, it feels as if journalism is dying
She didn't overpromise...she outright lied, manipulated, and stole.
Exactly!
John Carreyrou is a true hero by going up against very powerful people to bring truth to light and help save people from poor blood tests. Thank you John Carreyrou for your service!
I'm reading the book Bad Blood right now and I can assure it's impossible to put down.
Stephen Charman I stayed up until 5 am to finish it
The title is like another book about fraud Bad Blood: The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment
@I. Wynn Wynn well that's like asking what's better- the film or the book the film is based on? I found both excellent. However the book has more detail and builds tension in a stronger way to the documentary. I hope that answers your question.
Ugh reading is so lame who has the time
Been following Theranos for years, I need to get the book.
This just highlights the importance of doing your research before you invest.
Holmes did a great job fooling investors with her lofty ideas and Steve Jobs like attire.
This highlights knowing science before investing.
A 19 year old girl with a year at Stanford would be a good place to invest $100's of millions
In a Blood Testing startup
People are stupid when it comes to a pot of gold.
In the industry (lab testing), we knew she was full of BS and was doomed to get caught.
Michael Jay - Value Investing and by getting extremely ingrained and influential investors to invest in her, her company, and became board members thereby lending their credibility to her and her company.
Also used classic frauds like 3 card Monty with dna analysis, straight lies about where the results of the tests came from.
It’s one thing to fool people because they didn’t ask questions. In this case they did but they were blatantly lied to about the capacity and capabilities of her device.
What I’m saying is you can do all the research in the world but if you’re being concealed the truth and facts this can happen to anyone.
She lied to thousands and thousands of investors and sold them fools gold.
Escape for Mankind is Keith Johnson LMBAO!
If not for regulations, companies like Theranos would be around every street corner.
Yep, and Trump just got rid of a shit ton of them.
@@alainarchambault2331 Really? Was that before or after the demise of Trump University ? LOL
@@AOXOMOXO Think of the timeline mate, I'm sure the answer will come to you. Though I would say that since Trump had gutted a lot of regulations, it'd be easier for Trump-like business practices to spring up everywhere.
@@AOXOMOXO I think he meant that Trump got rid of a lot of the regulations(which he does) not that he got rid of the companies like Theranos.
@@TFHDeathUA33Oh yeah...I get it alright. I have lived through the S&L crisis, the real estate recession of 1989 and the melt down of 2008. I know what getting rid of regulations leads to. Greed. Greed takes over, and we, the taxpayers, bail out the country to keep it afloat.
Whoa. Did he say "ex-boyfriend Sunny Balwani?" She was dating Theranos' President? This story gets stranger and stranger.
Fahad Khan who's he?
Info on Balwani:
www.dreshare.com/ramesh-sunny-balwani-wiki-bio-net-worth-age/
she like dirty old men, oh dear Elizabeth we could have had a happy life together. .... in a different parallel universe.
Did you know that if you didn't hear something clearly, you can back up and replay the stream? Just kidding. Couldn't resist.
He had made a small fortune in his own IT start up company and I think he gave her the first $30 million or something like that to start Theranos. Did you think that was a free gift? LOL!
Excellent journalism by the interviewer and interviewee
Walgreen, what were you thinking of just signed contract without doing any duo-diligence to have the product live?? We have to think twice from now on at these pharmaceutical stores with what they offers to the public.
They acted against the advice of their own consultant that they hired to do due diligence on Theranos, greed gets even the big companies who couldn't resist.
Walgreen had the fear of missing out syndrome. They thought the would get a one up on CVS.
@@weirdshibainu FOMO.
Walgreen's is used to dealing with drug companies who many times cover up the risks of their drugs.
One can't say things like the with Trump as President...
This interviewer is SUPERB! I have watched a dozen or so interviews about holmes, and he really asks questions that others have not thought of. Luv it.
When someone has "crazy eyes" - they are probably crazy.
Glad to see that justice prevailed, somehow. The small fraud and con, however, remain unnoticed, uncaught. I am a Watertown/MA resident and I know a couple of thieves, William R. Noble and Marina Noble who are a bold FRAUD by lying everywhere that they are "running phase-1 drug safety studies" in their own apartment kitchen, without a workplace or appropriate space to conduct any research and both are cons, as none of them has any suitable education, or any education at all. Then, they use the fabricated "files of studies" and ask the naive, started drug companies reimburse them for so-called "vigilance." A primitive FRAUD. Marina Noble is also a shoplifter, she is an Armenian (former name Marine Mkhitaryan). We all Watertown/MA hate to see this couple still in freedom. Time by time they escape to West Yarmouth/MA, Bill Noble's parents' place when they are evading prosecution. FBI, FTC, and FDA do nothing to stop this couple, when they actions are directly endangering our lives as they create fake drug-testing records and contribute to the wrongful deaths or side effects from the not tested drugs. William Noble and Marina Noble must be in prison.
Patrick Casey
Excellent observation! Totally agree.
@A Glass of Freshly Squeezed Ass Juice yeah man 6th grade is fucking tough. I hear ya.
@John Smith sure Jan
I think her balls dropped with the voice change.
I've watched and listened to a lit of interviews with Mr. Carreyrou...This is an EXCELLENT conversation, covering a lot of ground in less than 20 minutes. For me, the most interesting passage is about the theoretical feasibility of pinprick blood tests, beginning at 13:20. One overlooked corollary of Theranos' demise may be that further development of these (seemingly discredited) technologies is from now on even more difficult to finance.
Great point ..... I didn't think about that ......
Nice interview. I’ve been following Holmes since she was on the cover of Forbes years ago. It all sounded so intriguing. The first time I saw her being interviewed that voice floored me. But it wasn’t just that, something else about her seemed off. I believe that we’re all too prone to overlook gut instinct.
Great book! I hope John Carreyrou receives the highest award for this book!
The only winners were the lawyers. Hahaha🤣🤣😂😂😆
I have to agree with you, the scourge of society.
If you read the book you would see that her lawyers were just as evil as she was. They couldn't
have cared less that patients lives were at risk and did every thing that
they could to threaten whistleblowers.
lawyers always win, even when they don't
We should go back to the old system. You wait until the Godfather's daughter is getting married. Then you go there and ask him to take care of it for you. Then he makes the other guy an offer he can't refuse.
Lawyer is an occupation Sociopaths are attracted to.
Carreyrou is a national hero. Wished I could meet him some day. The interviewer is very good as well. I saw other videos where the interviews love to hear themselves speak. The book is riveting; couldn’t put it down. I finished it in 3 days
Mission Accomplished: I just bought "Bad Blood."
Trackhawk Ross the book is terrific
Donna Klaffky Pullan how good is this book?
Isa Orozco I absolutely loved it...a great read
Isa Orozco couldn't put it down, highly recommended. Elizabeth is one hell of a saleswoman.
@Isa - One hell of a sociopath too.
I am a lab scientist and I actually interviewed at this company and I never thought that testing would work for them at least with the present technology
That’s why you didn’t get the job. However, I bet you would get hired if you only had a high school diploma.
Lies. Now all of a sudden doctors and medical students “met her” or knew this and that pls shut up
@@johannalynn1320
I am not trying to dis what she was thinking … she was very creative and innovative. Except from me working in the lab, the present instruments( currently available ) require more blood volume than she was suggesting. She was thinking and on the right track .. this might work in a more DNA setting… we are not there yet.. may be one day.. hard to understand unless you work in the field .
This is bullshit whether or not she profited is irrelevant in Criminal proceedings ... they have to show she intentionally or recklessly defrauded investors, which admittedly is not easy. But saying she did not profit is like saying a bank robber did not actually get away with any money means he is innocent.
Sopho Cles to nicely said
finished Bad Blood in about 5 days. loved it.
Kevin Reeder pussy. I finished in under 5 mins. Obviously your ability to digest information is inefficient. Try using a blender next time.
Before watching this my initial response to the question of what next for Holmes is - trial by jury for fraud and endangering the lives of others.
jagara1 sound fair to me , I just can't see much happening to her . It seems like once you've gathered enough paper , your prosecution exempt . Got to keep them wheels greased

Great interview! I just finished this book in Audible; it was an amazing piece of hard-hitting investigative journalism, which in this age of “infotainment” you don’t often see anymore. As I’m writing this, the Theranos website is still operational, although it notes in its “news” section that Holmes stepped down as CEO and was replaced by her general counsel, David Taylor. (However, it says she retains her position as chair of the board.) So it would appear that the author’s prediction that the company would be out of business by late July/early August did not come to pass, but when it finally runs out of money and steam, it will have to. Since the book’s release in May, both Holmes and Bulwani were indicted in mid-June on federal charges for wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. The maximum fine is $250k, but could result in up to 20 years in federal prison.
Time will tell.....
Huh..I am kind of more impressed with this interviewer!! Came out as very professional and precise with his questions and most importantly has his focus right, which is let the interviewee talk!! Well done dude!!
Why does he never mention that her father was a vp at Enron?
Just that should have been a yuuuuge 🚩
Why didn’t the investors know that😂😂 they deserved to be gotten lol
LOL Theranos outsourced it blood testing, they didn't even have a product.
self-loving loser The wellness centres were a good idea, she should have just run with that with that using commercial analysers from Siemens etc.
they have. that tiny bottle is cute tho 😂😂😂
I was in their lab and they used Siemens analyzers and you are right they had no products.
she had no idea at all no knowledge on the field even the elementary ... how you even talk with a woman that knows nothing and claims she invented a new machine that do blood tests. Steve Jobs from what we know he didn't knew any programming but he was good at organizing others, she simply could not do that cause she knew nothing at all about medical field.
John Carreyrou deserves another Pulitzer Prize for breaking this Theranos story. Need more investigative reporters like him.
This gentleman is such an honest and respectful gentleman. Thump up to you man.
When I look at Theranos and Fyre Festival, it makes me marvel at how easily the wealthy can be fleeced.
17primemover
Millions of dollars is not enough for these people. They want more.
It really isn't difficult at all. If you are good at shameless flattery.
17primemover you can't get fleeced on an investment/purchase when you don't have a pot to piss in
Danny Tanner - that’s very true. But if all you have is a pot to piss in...then your not going to make it to the big times.😢
Yeah robbing the rich to become rich don't feel sorry for the investors
A company worth aprox 10 billion dollars, with a non working prototype as a product 😂 😂
😂
😂🤣
only in america! the media should be ashamed of themselves for fawning over the fraud.
Where were you a decade ago?
@Mdmchannel Big budget, dog & pony show.
Reminds me of Karl Pilkington's 'invention' of a watch with a countdown timer that tells you when you'll die. When asked how it would work he said "just pop it on your wrist" 😂
13:19 I invented a flying car. Am I on to something? Yes, it's just that the technology is not there yet.
And i am going to invent floating traffic light😁😁
I just finished reading the book. As a not long retired CLS (lab professional) it amazes me that she got so far for so long
with her outrught lies and deceit. So many red flags it was amazing.......thankfully the harm she could have done was quelched just in time. Lots to learn here for the future. A nice long jail term for her and her boyfriend hopefully.
This host did a really good job asking these questions. 👍
One thing that pisses me off is the idea that "Oh, she had a great, great idea, so that makes her a great, great person! She has changed life as we know it!". Bullsh*t. I have all kinds of great ideas, but that doesn't make me a game changer. Doesn't make me a life changer. It makes me someone with a great idea.
@Heywood Jablome the reason she got the publicity is because she cheated people out of hundreds of millions of dollars. My great idea is this: prove you're worth that 9 billion. She didn't produce anything. I'm so sick of this Leftist ideology that all you have to do is "think" about something and all of a sudden you've done something good. The very person she copied PRODUCED SOMETHING. Steve Jobs not only thought great things, but he produced great things. She's not even worthy to clip his toenails. Quit pulling out the tired old "she's in trouble because she's a woman" or even worse "if it had been a man, he'd be a hero". She is a crook plain and simple. Not a visionary. The only lives she changed were those she victimized with fake blood tests and stealing people's money.
The book is really good. Highly recommended!
It’s so insane to watch her describing this device. It’s so crazy to know now that she absolutely KNEW she was full of crap.
Excellent interview, nice job!👍
Beary Captainjack Awesome interviewer! It's rare you see someone this good.
indeed, he is amazing!
The young reporter is very good. He is asking some really great questions.
Namas Dee you fancy him
This man is a hero. Good for him for bringing all the lies and deception out in the open.
I just bought a second book. Lost the first one. After I read it, but want to read again. Still can't believe how she pulled it off. As for Carreyrou, genius are you.
I think what happened was that these investors do not have the knowledge about lab testing. No pharmaceutical or laboratory equipment company will touch that. There is a reason why pin prick blood is not used in all lab tests. They are different and every lab tech or doctor knows that.
It was a hype train one big investor jumped on then another an so on .
7:12 - any reason to equate enron to theranos? YES, IT SEEMS ELIZABETH HOLMES' DAD [Christian Rasmus Holmes]was a vp at enron. Who knew?
You can’t make this stuff up, folks...
Any investor should know to NEVER throw your money at something. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
This story fascinated me ... I remember reading about her success and being so jealous...how the mighty have fallen....
Yikes u sound like a insecure little man
Bernadette Madoff
LOL!!!
lol...
*beatrice
🤣🤣🤣
@FAGGOTWARE STUDIOS 🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆😆
Kudos and respect to the interviewer and interviewee. Excellent reporting.
This man, John Carreyrou, is a hero, and he should receive a Purple Heart for stopping that crazy woman. How many people would die because of false diagnose. People, this was huge.
Her father was at some point a VP in Enron, her connections to the military industrial complex through her parents are missing from this story.
I can believe she mustve fully believed that technology would catch up to the lie eventually but what I can't understand is her lie endangering innocent ppl's lives now since the machine was in use in the real world.
I respectfully disagree with the author. The issue is not that Homes had duped the investors - goes without saying. The point is: Holmes had put American lives in danger. That Balvani character should be criminally indicted as well. IMHO.
He says his question would be to her 'how could you rationalize endangering peoples lives'...
Enron did not understand the difference between the way oil prices(unregulated) work and the regulations covering electrical supplies
Not a single cent has ever been returned to electrical customers in California
Where did she live? How did she make the payment? Car? Food? Clothing? Travel? She enriched herself for years.
Wow, to be inline with the story of Enron rather than Apple. The result of pride and greed overpowering the virtues of empathy and integrity.
INTERESTING FACT.....
Elizabeth Holmes was born in Washington, D.C. Holmes's father, Christian Rasmus Holmes IV, was a vice president at Enron
This is true investigative journalism. Bravo! 👏
They all wanted to see a woman succeed in the tech industry, that's all it is...
Peris Chamberlain- Yep. The MSM set her up as “The Next Steve Jobs.”🙄 Everyone was singing her praises. #sheepleareguillible
This story is fascinating. Yes, how was she able to rationalize lying and endangering so many -- investors, Walgreens, and especially the general public? I wonder if this book goes into her family of origin. I've read that Holmes' father expected her to do something that would change the world. Did Elizabeth feel pressure to be some sort of genius influencer? She had this idea that couldn't work. She was told that it couldn't work by experts. Did some experts give her false hope? Did she intend to run this fraud forever, or did she have some hope that it would eventually work?
Yes the book explains her family history. She wanted to be billionaire as a kid. Her dad showed her how their past generations were very prestigious, wealthy, and influential until recently. So she was driven and inspired to get it back at all cost, and lies began to cover up failures to achieve her goal.
What gets me about this is that Murdoch is not a stupid person. How on earth was he suckered into this utter fakery?
Great interview.
I simply don't understand what was the FDA and Wallgreens doing before the product was getting launched 😱
They were denying the company's requests to approve their magical machine. Because the company hadn't gone public it was harder to hold it accountable, hence the need for whistle blowers.
great interview!
Why does this bring out a slew of trolls pointing out that "if she were a man, then..." That is beyond dumb. First how many men who committed fraud then went free. Second her boyfriend and co-conspirator is not in jail either. Third there is an ongoing criminal investigation, so let's see how that unfolds. Fourth wrong is wrong, stop making excuses or condemnations based on gender.
kvaka009 👏👏👏👏
Excellent interview. Lots of good questions.
Excellent interview, great questions...now we just need justice with Elizabeth Holmes serving a five to six year prison sentence with heavy fine.
You go to jail to 20 years for having a splif, but you think only 5 years for endangering other peoples lives, inluding children and the elderly? Let alone the money she swindled employees and shareholders?
@@thetruthwillsetyoufree9209 she already settled with the SEC for the economic angle to her crimes
Next for E.Holmes is to become like Jordan Belfort (the Wolf of Wall Street) - a coach of persuasion skills, public speaking, fund raising and _"innovative"_ thinking.
It's very likely to happen in her future.
I hope not…Holmes is the bigger con due to the health risk of patients as a result of her crimes IMO
So Theranos had FDA approvals and patents? The board had Henry Kissinger for what? Going live with blood tests. What were the VCs, investors looking at....her?
If dumb money from billionaires is easy .. Startup founders would have Pamela Anderson as their CMO 😂
Yeah right....sure courts are going to punish her with jail terms. Lets be real with all those board members she definitely had clout.
At least the world knows Pam Anderson.
But you, who are you and what is your entire existence valued at, Mr I Could Pass For A Human Being Too?
They didn't have any government approval.....they used a loop hole... For better explanation ua-cam.com/video/-kbja1EI1kQ/v-deo.html ....it's the same guy in another interview
go eat mcdonalds fatass
Arianna Reardon Wannabe, I see you are still looking for your mother...?
Arianna Reardon no lie if you want 6.5 inches I'll give it to ya
Why can’t journalists all be like this? Why did they ALL become whiny, sensationalizing, brats who are beyond biased?
I bet Liz will not be incarcerated because she’s not the type they send to jail. She’s got that white girl magic!
She's beautiful. She's smart. It depends on the jury really. If it would be made up mostly of males...well, she'd either get a light sentence or might even walk. A jury made of women might be a different story though, as women are vicious against those who they perceive to be more successful and/or more beautiful than they are.
Veniese Wilkinson a lot more white women now-a-days have been going to prison. The Beckery isn't working as well since they have pulled things too far
She lied to feds...being white in that situation didn't help Martha Stewart
And Martha Stewart is hotter.
You should go to jail. And your family should be Elaine's for every. Your nationality Must be cancelled !!
I'm halfway through reading the book. It's a masterpiece. Carreyrou is a national treasure.
Its not how much she made, its how much she swindled off other investors regardless of their financial standing it still has a price & a name which is fraud!
What do they mean she made no money? She lived like a queen for ten years. In any event I don't believe she doesn't have some money squirreled away. She's not to be trusted.
The real winners here were indeed the lawyers. Out of 900 million dollars that she raised from the investors, most of it went to legal expenses. Such a big waste given the fact that the core of her business: the product itself doesn't work at all so it's meaningless to have lawyers chasing the ex employees to protect the so called trade secrets and the patents.
As part of her sentencing, she should only be allowed to take Theranos tests for all medical issues throughout her life
I literally couldn't believe my eyes while reading his book. How a company can be valued at $10b without any new technology. The power of manipulation
Let's just take one issue, that capillary blood from a finger stick is contaminated with tissue and not as reliable for many tests compared with the purity of directly drawn venous blood. How was it explained by Holmes or the company representatives that they had found a way of overcoming this? Did they claim that was one of their trade secrets?
Another thing which was insane was their plans for imminent expansion, Walgreens testing around the country. As it was, they had trouble testing what they were doing with the limited trial Walgreens operation. Expanding that by a hundred times or more would not have solved their problems and as John explained, would have made it worse as someone or several people would have ended up dying as a consequence of the charade. Elizabeth Holmes had limitless capacity for lies and deception, but it seems like the expansion would have resulted in a mass revolt or defection by employees.
John is a man that should be honoured by the us government......
We all should appreciate and respect , this wonderful guy save our life！
Theranos is not an indictment of Silicon Valley. They avoided the VC ecosystem on purpose as they knew their ‘tech’ would not stand up to due diligence. Most of the investors were billionaire family offices, not the general public. That being said Kerry is right to point out the potential ramifications if their Walgreens deployment was rolled out nationwide. BTW, how did Walgreens get taken for a ride on this?
Despite the fraud and so on, I do hope the technology to come by in the future.
Carmen Yap despite the fraud and so on, I do hope her time machine technology to come by in the future too, so I can use it to stop you from posting your very silly comment.
i find the idea blurry. for the technology nowadays. its just impossible. capillary blood that little is way too different compared to venous blood for testing. its like picking a pebble in a mountain to test it if it has gold on the Whole Mountain.
when i first saw her company featured on a ted talk. i was amazed and also curious like, the hell?!! woah! a break through tech! and yeah really, just a break through hoax. its just sad.
I have a degree in biology btw :)
Dream on. It's total BS.
I worked for walgreens at the time as a pharmacist and the CEO of Walgreens lied to us as well.
Great set of questions.
Now that was an excellent interview, back and forth, excellent Q and A, respect and intellect
Man if this was a man, he would have BEEN thrown UNDER the jail. . Ridiculous
Killian Landji....absofuckinglutely if that were one of us we'd already be doin time....
Thanks God this journalist found her and the boyfriend,really a dangerous situation, I hope judges will take this into account and sentence them with a severe punishment. A real journalist, well done.
The funny thing is that her vision will become reality in a few years when technology catches up...
thats the worthy comment i was looking for
No it's not. Physics and chemistry set the limits to what's possible. It's not like you can make anything happen if you just "science" enough. It's not magic. And what she had in mind is in the realm of fantasy.
Think about it though, it will take a lot more to get there now. Nobody is going to be investing in the technology after she pulled this. She probably set it back (just like women) many years. Nice legacy.
The reason she couldn't do it is because no one can. It's impossible. That's what makes her crazy and everyone who invested in her gullible.
FairySox she has the right vision , it’s just the timing that was wrong. Can’t use 2030 technology in 2019. It just won’t work.
The title of the book is genius I’d love to read that book!
Aaand its gone.
The money's gone.
Peace best scene in South Park.
Funny enough if you nvest the money in the South park game then Rob the guy later in the game you turn a profit
Send the gold overseas melt it down and sell it back to the senior citizens of America.
Patients were lied to about the reliability of their blood tests. That has to be viewed as the highest wrong here. But, every time I see a picture of Elizabeth Holmes I'm also struck by the immeasurable damage she has done to the credibility and chances of other women who try to get funding for their business ideas. It was already tough trying to be taken seriously by VCs. Now, it will be nigh on impossible.
So all I have to do is deepen my voice, talk in circles, have messy hair and dress like a man and I can start a billion $$ company?
There nothing "ALLEGED", to my understanding... When you pretend to sell something that does not exist (and she knew it) it is not the very definition of FRAUD?
You mean she tried to sell something that doesn’t exist…pretending means she never thought she was actually selling it
@@CraigMcGuinn - When you sell nothing the confine between seriousness and pretense is kinda blurred... We're threading the needle.
@@self-parternerd8661 true…but pretending to sell something that doesn’t exist isn’t against the law. Only trying to sell something that doesn’t exist is
Now take on the "Charitable Foundations" if you want to be a Martyr.
