I'm curious why all charges weren't a guilty

@@set65 It depends on how many tests are ordered as well as the lab's requirements. Hematological tests require whole blood usually the collection tube's cap is color coded indicating the tubes anticoagulant (most often containing Heparin). The red top tube typically contains no anticoagulant at all because most chemistry tests use serum obtained by centrifuging the clotted blood. However, some of the tests can require either serum or plasma (for example, electrolytes). But these are not the only examples. I was trained to use an an automated analyzer that ran 21 tests on a single patient sample and on many 8 hour shifts we ran more than 600 samples: That's 12,600 tests results per evening shift not counting calibration and every 10 samples was a "control sample" to insure accuracy and precision. My college text book was, John D Bauer's "Clinical Laboratory Methods". A final reason and a very important one is that clinical labs are required to store left over samples in the event a physician request it be retested to insure a patient receives appropriate treatment based on the confirmed result(s).

It can take a lot of sacrifice , a lot worth loosing to do the right thing. I’m sure there were a lot of unsuspecting employees who didn’t want to loose their jobs and income while supporting families. But of course- if your intuition tells you something is wrong, the best thing to do is to get out of that job.

It is a testament of our failed government and society which have been manipulated by the evil international banksters for the past 300 years. The USA is no different from Zimbabwe.

Amen!!! Perfect quote!

What’s even wilder she and Elizabeth served on the board of fellows at Harvard at one point in time together!

I remember hearing about Theranos when it was still considered a legitimate company. The device was described as a medical tricorder from Star Trek, and I was thinking, "how is that even possible?" Turns out it wasn't.

Walgreens fires their consultant hired to investigate Theranos in order to protect their best interest. Walgreens installs Theranos' Edison Machines into their stores. FDA regulators shut down the operation, due to immediate jeopardy to patient health and safety. Walgreens: surprised Pikachu face. Lawyers swoop in for a massive class action lawsuit against Walgreens, Theranos, et. al. Walgreens: surprised Pikachu face x2.

Give it some time , big pharma will be selling her invention

Had a sales rep come into the Children’s Hospital I worked at and did a whole presentation. After the rep left I spoke with an Endocrinologist Doc and asked her what she thought about it because it was fascinating. The doctor looked at me and said “ain’t no way”. She did not comprehend how it would be possible and instructed us not to use their services.

Live action role play lol

I wondered in hindsight what the people of Siemens and Philips thought the claims of Theranos.

@@KenDAKL4ever Yes, that is in the book "Bad Blood". Worth a read!

i read different. The Walgreens consultant was asking questions that Theranos deemed to be "offensive" and "disrupting" the meeting, and subsequently boo hooed to Walgreens upper management (he was simply asking due diligence questions to protect his employer, Walgreens...mind you). Walgreens then fired their consultant. its also been speculated that Walgreens was very worried about CVS getting in on the action, and they wanted to lock it down b4 they did.

Because millionaire donors have the receipts (evidence). Regular people do not; therefore it's more difficult to prove.

They did find her guilty of four counts

Money

Talking as an auditor, money. At the end of the day, people listen to money rather than truth. Auditing, like many things, is a business and giving failing reports to businesses is how auditors lose business. Additionally, more clients have to be brought in because clients drop out. A lot of overlapping projects. Ultimately, this is how auditors face demanding workloads and they are most likely to overlook things. Heavy regulation over the last 20 years by the government has made auditing a check-the-box project. We are essentially being told where to look and where not to look by these checklists. College graduates with no work experience are also a part of the problem. The education system continuously fails the public. Over time, auditing will become extinct because of the current toxic model.

hbo piff

😂😂😂😂...my thoughts too!!

And that scruffy unkempt hair!! 😂 WTF!?

I don't know the real answer, but I suspect it might be because she never interacted directly with the patients. She defrauded the investors and the industry customers because she made the false claims directly to them.

BY DEFRAUDING THE SYSTEM

I had the same question in regards to defrauding the patients. A kind viewer of you tube provided me with these facts: “The defense largely won those counts in by prevailing with the judge on pretrial motions that severely limited the scope of patient testimony, they were barred from being asked about physical or emotional harm they experienced as a result of faulty test results and only patients who paid out of their own pocket for the test were allowed to testify at all”.

Likely because it is difficult to prove causation. That is, it is hard to find patients whose blood was put through Theranos who then suffered illness thereafter and to then link that illness to a Theranos misdiagnosis.

My thoughts too, that to me was as bad or worse. Extremely disappointed!

To make it clear how and why they aren't and suggest that a solution exists. She and her board, who btw share the blame here, didn't do this well. I don't think they realized they were in the medical device industry NOT the computer software business. There should have been a physician and scientist review board that was making it clear what this idea could and couldn't do safely. Finger stick can be used for many chemistry and serum based studies and the idea of using very small quantities has merit. In fact the inspiration here is that there has been huge progress in the area. Obviously we rely on this for blood sugars. The problem is not enough to give a full accurate reading for the majority of the panel we normally order. Pushing cells through a slit opening as opposed to a vein causes lysis of the cells which then interferes with accurate readings for over half what you generally want to know. This was obvious to anyone in the field..well not to this group apparently. So it wasn't a full on scam and I would say it would be interesting to see what was getting accurate measurements that could have been product that was useful for many in-office studies. I don't know what has become of the work and money spent on R&D. I agree the speculative investors made money on the way up and many shorted on the way down..The funds probably ate it the most.
