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.

Staff and ex-staff mental health is in shatters, Walgreen has implemented the box into a select stores and Pfizer are reputed to be using Therano’s medical marvel The edison on cancer patients. Media are loving this blonde blue eyed standford dropout Elizabeth Holmes who has disrupted the healthcare world.

Dr Clapper sensing this is quite a big deal after hearing their stories has sent the story to someone he believes he has the resources, time and investigative know-how to take on a $9billion dollar corporation.
Enter the chat John Carrey-you the lead medical investigative journalist at the Wall Street Journal.
