Original Note:
This tweet and the video were dishonest. The video gives the impression that Theranos helped people. In fact, Elizabeth Holmes was taking people's money and sending them false test results. It was a fraud scheme. Lawsuits resulted. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/theranos-walgreens-call-it-quits-140m-lawsuit Holmes was convicted of felonies. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/us-v-elizabeth-holmes-et-al https://www.npr.org/2022/11/18/1137606060/elizabeth-holmes-sentenced-11-years-prison
