![Elizabeth Holmes Found Guilty of Fraud [Theranos Trial Details]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/OxCO5EUYOqw/mqdefault.jpg)
She sounded like a 16-year old boy trying to buy beer at a gas station!
LOL
More like a 14 year old
her voice sounds like a prelude to burping! hahahahaha!
There are three restroom choices at Home Depot. Guess which one?
@Great Value Bleach "HAD"
SHE BECAME A BILLIONAIRE WHEN .. PEOPLE DECIDED TO GIVE HER A BILLION DOLLARS
Every sixty seconds, a minute passes in Africa.
Which, incidentally, is when the rest of them became billionaires as well.
they bought shares that pushed the market capitalization to billions. Doesnt mean anyone actually owned that amount or that there ever even was lots of trade volume
skiie not one
Nine
Nine f***ing billion
Joshua Anderson That’s pretty funny.
I love these stories about "self-made" millionairs, that imply everybody can do this. when in reality they just have rich parents/friends.
and/or are criminals. See also: America's congress
Correction. BILLIONAIRES!! And the self made narrative has shifted from earned money to burned investors. She certainly changed some people's world. Theranos board members were too dim to succeed.
Exactly. Almost all are lying about being self made. Most come from money. Musk for example comes from a very rich family in South Africa (I am South African and this is common knowledge in SA). His father owned diamond mines under Apartheid. Where the diamonds mining was mostly done by black people having to work for peanuts under the Apartheid regime. So basically slave labour if we are being bluntly honest.
A "pied piper" leading the GULLIBLE ....and those that thirst to be associated with the piper with only one goal ...to get some "public air" time with the piper.
Robert Browning put this on paper in 1842. Safe to say these gullible people didn't bother reading the Pied Piper ....or Hans Christian Andersen's, The Emperor's New Clothes.. Stupid is as stupid does.
like trump
The only positive that came from theranos is, that it became one of the most entertaining fraud cases ever.
No for me she is on second position first one is Adam Newman's wework😎
WeWork and Tesla are coming up soon...
@@booneboone9705 And Hyperloop.
@@electric7487 Yeah but in my opinion it's already been exposed by real engineers, just not by main stream media tho.
No Tesla
Jesus, she sounds like she's trying to do the impression of a young man in a high-school drama class.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you are spot on, if you can be bothered doing a search online, you will find examples of where this numpty accidentally reverts to her real voice. But why bother, I think this documentary demonstrates just how fake she is - voice and all.
I thought her voice sounded a bit weird as soon as she started talking, and then came the totally unsurprising revelation that she was putting on a fake voice. It made total sense.
"Sounds like you have sunken to your lowest" Pahdunk! /_
She was litteraly trying to seem more "masculine" in order to be more authoritative while at the same time playing up being female for the sympathy/privilege angle. She's a world-class bullshit artist of the highest order and probably a sociopath/high-level-narcissist if we could see her psych eval responses.
She's not a natural blonde, either.
"dropped out..." and nobody questioned her medical knowledge?
They did but I am sure they were also called sexist for doing so.
@Vinny Holiday ooooow a snarky response haven't seen that before.
My wants aside there's established precedent of people being called sexist or misogynist when calling a woman's qualifications into account. So whether you like it or not it happens an I definitely speculate it happened with her as well.
I think “dropped out from Stanford” means you are such a genius that you are above anything they have to offer. Or not
@Vinny Holiday youre delusional if you think she got this far on a scam WITHOUT someone being called sexist for doubting her
She's a woman. Brains were shut-off with blind support.
And now she is trying to blame her actions on her boyfriend allegedly "abusing her". Why am I not surprised.
She's an absolutely disgusting person!
Yeah, I don't believe it for a second. Her BF was like: "Well, we're not engaged or married or anything, and she's worth billions...hmmm. I know...I'll beat her up so I never have to spend any of that money. Besides, her dad is rich and powerful, so pissing him off is a great idea! And look! Everyone on her board looks so rich, they could afford a lawyer who could talk me into eating myself from the toes up. I just love having enemies like that!"?
Like...I'm not saying that rich powerful people don't get abused by their partners. I'm saying their partners hold the abuse until they've at least gotten a little something for themselves out of the relationship. How do you even abuse a partner, knowing that they're constantly appearing on national TV, and could tell the entire country what you've been doing to them. Someone who could be in her position, but let a partner abuse them, would not come across the way she does. You gotta be a special kind of timid for that. It's not like she never had anyone to turn to. She had EVERYONE to turn to. The people she associated with were like a who's who of the people you'd want to contact to make sure you got the absolute swiftest, best protection possible, and the absolute worst consequences for the person who abused you. How do you even maintain a fake deep voice if you're constantly stressed? You have to be Hella relaxed for that, or your voice is cracking and squeaking after a minute.
“I am woman! I am woman! I am woman! I am woman! *gets caught committing crime* My boyfriend was mean, I’m just a woman! My boyfriend was mean, I’m just a woman! My boyfriend was mean, I’m just a woman!”
classic woman moment
Because she’s a psychopath or something lol
She suffers from the same delusion that modern Sci Fi writers have. Simply adding the words "nano," "sonic" or "quantum" to your device's name does not make it a feasible magic wand.

Don't dis the sonic!
@@elagrion Real Doctors don't use sonics.
@DnB and Psy Production If her company succeeded, she would have been Marvel Supervillain
She sounds every second like shes gonna start crying. Or maniacally laughing.
first one then the other. now try and get that image out of your head.
It's all good
Mix that with her psycho eyes and you have the makings of a super villain.
I watched some amateur documentary of her, apparently she does fake her voice to sound deeper. Psychologically, people tend to take you more seriously if your voice sounds deep or something like that. The video also includes her real feminine voice, then realizing her mistake, changed back to the deep one. The theory sounds plausible.
yes ...and that permanent panicky gaze gets me as well...
"we need more of these role models" People who drop out of school to run giant scams that hurt people not only monetarily, but physically as well..
lkuhhdsfgasdgvdadfg It’s the patriarch’s fault.
@@daytonasayswhat9333 Totally. Those damn men.
Yeah, and neolibs who pushed this are calling themselves “progressives”.
Not only they don’t care about progressive issues like the left does, they are parasites who use “woke” motifs to shield themselves at the expense of those vulnerable who would benefit from progressive policies.
No, women. You know, because girls cant have male role models.
@@hamsandwichindahouse well you wouldn't be wrong lol
I'm so tired of hearing how "brilliant" she is. She has no appreciable training and came up with fantastical ideas that were total bullshit. She is a con artist, but there are many, many people who failed to ask tough questions during Theranos' lifespan.
And the fact that anyone, anywhere looked at the idea for the patch and thought it was even remotely viable is just insane.
"Oh, it's so amazing that you were only 19 when you came up with this absurd idea!" Whatever. Silicon Valley is such a self-serving shell game.
It's ironic the same people who hate her love and worship that moron Elon Musk.
She's a brilliant con artist.
tell that to musky
Its like women have to be the giver of all life and the super genius tech wizards aswell.
@@ashvienis Musk made paypal, tesla and space ex. He has done more for humanity that almost anyone in history.

This reads like a shit advert for a shit movie
she has that robotic emotionless stare that Zuckerberg has.
this woman give me some zucky vibes.
lizard people
she took after a few successful enterpreneurs. she also imitated Steve Jobs with her clothing style to a degree.
It's a learned thing. She's basically looking at/for a camera.
Tried yesterday to delete old crap from my facebook wall, turns out i can only "hide them".
With exceptions being search results ETC..
So i'll have to manually delete it all it seems.
If i could strangle the ZuCc-Bot-3000, i would.
she sounds like me when i was 15 outside a nightclub trying to convince the bouncers i was over 18
Why do I have a feeling you sounded and seemed more believable and less ludicrous?
Did you manage to get the bouncers to also pay for your drinks?
😂😂
@@Heretus i think that is park of the point. Hwr voice sounds like its being faked deper eveb though its trying to sound softer
Theranos snapped is fingers and the iron lady's net worth went from 4.5 billion to zero
The most scary thing here is that it took someone who comes from a super rich background, who also has connections to someone even more powerful, that is also involved in all of this as a financier to blow the lid off it. I wonder how much longer they would have gotten away with this otherwise.
Couldn't have been that long. They didn't have a product to deliver
No real money was lost. Just shuffled around for a while.
4:21 Elizabeth Holmes is actually one of Mark Zuckerberg’s alternate skins to walk around in
😂😂😂
They remind me of early attempts at using actual humans to depict humanoid robots in movies

Shes elon musk of medical science
@@zacksmith5963 Accurate! 😄
I’m a travel nurse and I remember first hearing about this and laughing thinking it was a joke because just running a basic chem panel or metabolic panel requires extremely sophisticated equipment and a significant amount of blood. When I realized it was “legit” I was beside myself how can no one in silicone valley not understand basic biochemistry it’s amazing I’m “just” a nurse and I knew this was bullshit from the very beginning if I had the money I would have short sold the shit out of this stock!
And you would have been bankrupt. The insanity lasted so much longer than your bank account can keep up.
Well you had more medical training than anyone behind that project, lol! 😆
YK L that’s why I said if I had the money lol I make good money as a travel nurse but you need buffet money to pull off a successful short of this stock
popasmuerf I think there was a 19th century philosopher/economist and his buddy who talked about this Charles marks and brederick lengals I think.. and another dude expanded on the idea later I think his name was brenin or something... 😏

@@davidperrier6149 haha.😂
@@villikuivanen555 HAHAHAHA
That's kinda what she did, she changed her voice to sound more masculine and dressed like Steve jobs.
basically what she did.
She dropped her voice an octave to be taken more seriously and it worked.
Shame she was a scam artist.
@Banquo 333 bro you got me dying
An honorary Doctorate! It more than anything shows how blindly we trust rich people and delusionally believe them to possess merit.

Omg yes, and makes us feel a lot better for our little ridiculous mistakes compare to this.
It doesn't warm my soul; it hurts. The cringe is real.
Well said
@@Joshua-dc1bs well its real .
She sounds like children impersonating adults and using words they don’t understand.
It’s so fake I’m confused how she got so much money...
Vincent Adultman doing a business at the stock market. But IRL, with actual billions of dollars.
No, more like children looking at her with awe who desperately wanted to believe in her entirely because she is a woman.
Modernity is absolutely LOADED with stuff like this. Magical thinking is EVERYWHERE. Sophistry and rhetoric is everywhere. It is impossible to avoid it. Society got what it wanted and most certainly deserved!
Peeps wanna habeeb
This is the US we're talking about.
Fools and their money are soon parted, and it's a target rich environment.
BAD BLOOD is worth a read, there was a looooot of self-delusion going on, mostly by old men who weren't used to having to vet stuff themselves (as opposed to going through a long chain of command first).
Seeing how much money she has been able to acquire over a Sci-Fi drawing, has inspired me to dig out my Time Machine designs from when i was 6.
Sam Kershaw Lol. That’s pretty funny. I have some too. We should collaborate.

I already have some financiers and backers who might be interested.
I'll take your whole stock
Highly recommend that anyone interested in this subject read John Carreyrou's book, Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup, which charts this sorry tale from start to finish when Carreyrou exposed the Theranos scandal whilst working as a investigative reporter at the WSJ, he's the real hero in this story... 👍👏
I liked hearing about a strong empowered woman who broke Bernie Madoff's glass ceiling.
She broke the ceiling of male dominated world of fraud and simultaneously conquered squeaky voices. Gurl Power!
What do u mean girl power lol.. she’s a fraud.. what’s there to be proud of here.. this isn’t exactly an achievement u wanna unlock
@@bakchormeeman7864 yes, that was the joke
@@bakchormeeman7864 👏
So not girl power
She recently got her criminal trial pushed to August 2021 after revealing she was pregnant. I have to wonder if she actually wanted a child, or if this was a calculated action to both delay her trial and also to elicit sympathy from a jury by having a newborn child.
The various interviews and praises were all about how her marketing was so successful, and how she was female. None about the veracity of the claims.
It is so cringe inducing watching those women metaphorically scream 'validate me!'. Have some emotional stability ffs.
i love u guys
I would question the veracity of the female claims.
I like how her advertising was devoid of the hated white males. She personified feminist and SJW culture since the cultural marxists seized universites
@@ericl1421 Wasn't really my point. Women can run businesses, no problem, many do. But so many of these start ups, male or female run, tend to focus on how successful their fundraising or early marketing has been vs the technical or logistical strides made that make their new thing so game changing.
Elizabeth Holmes had so many powerful/influential enablers. Aren't those that enabled her worthy of condemnation?
First they call you crazy, then they fight you and then you end up changing your voice and becoming more crazy
I find it quite tragic that the first "Female Entrepreneur" Who became a billionaire turned out to be a fraud.
Its also quite hilarious.
Oprah was the first female entrepreneur to become a billionaire. Holmes was just the first “tech CEO” faker.
The issue is you’re all too focused on what’s between her legs. To me she’s just another scammer that took advantage of a system and sadly people who are so blinded by “equality this equality that” overlooked all the red flags about her and her business.
This is well deserved if you ask me. This is what happens when you choose dogma and ideology over reality and practicality.
Why hilarious?
Her fake voice is the funniest part as she is playing a feminist 😂
Ultimate Woman Moment.
she shouldn't have tried to make water from air.
Like a dehumidifier
Or like combustion of Hydrogen and Oxygen?
Or tried to make an LED road.
Apparently, she never heard of the Waterseer.
She probably wouldn't find her self in court. How many water from air devices end up in court?
Unfortunately many people lack even a basic understanding of how the human body works. What I don’t understand is I would have thought all medical devices require stringent independent testing and proof of accuracy before it got anywhere near a patient. It’s a shame because if the specs were more modest and realistic then it possibly could have useful applications.
update: Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes sentenced to 11 years in jail.
Haha well well deserved
Her "Steve Jobs" obsession was completely mental. It inspired her look (turtleneck et al) and her fake 'man' voice is unsettling.
Turtleneck is to hide neck tension when she fakes the deep voice
The turtleneck is to hide the vampire bites where they sucked out her blood, and soul.
Darren, only narcissists and apple fanboys idolize Steve Jobs.
Everyone else doesnt give a crap about him.
I didnt give a rats ass when he died, he wasnt important or iconic in the slightest.
She even hired veteran apple employee and held meetings at the same day as Steve did
What I find the funniest is how she's trying to sit in a manly manner in many of the interviews, trying too hard to do the "tough" pose.
They effectively burned resources useful to those who might actually have done some useful work.
The money these morons wasted would have prpbably gone into a stupid app to make you look like a monkey or something. Silicon valley fools aint too bright nowadays.
Everything from the way she sits to the way she talks is just hilarious 1:09 😂
this needs to be taught in all ethics courses
Does it? I think everyone understands what she did was terrible. People who do stuff like this are either the type who will justify any action or who simply don’t care who they harm.
@@dispatch-indirect9206 on one hand, you also realize anyone duped by this scam had not made even the simplest inquiry into anything involved. If they hadn't flush their money down the drain with her they would have thrown it into crypto, chain letters, or anything similar.
Lynda, these courses are about _how to get away with it_
she sounds like a 9 year old boy trying to make his voice sound like that of an adult.
maybe she used one of her products for herself
She certainly has the act of a billionaire down. But, and this is NOT any defense of her, but the idea of a diagnostic "patch" is not a bad one albiet without the drug delivery system which is plain unrealistic in the civilian sector (military has hinted at a future device). And it already is available in the diabetes market and perhaps the device could be made to give a basic diagnoses, but it would just be to send you to a doctor to be treated, no more. Also Google has a patent for a similar nanoneedle system but it utilizes sound to open the skin pores to create a painless injection. And those are nothing new, just expensive and doctors eschew them due to price and the fact it cannot deliver an intramuscular injection. A fraud she is, but some of the basics of it are actually sound and are being investigated albeit by real engineers, researchers, and people that arent snake oil salespeople.
She purposely does that. They have recordings of her using her normal voice.
I thought she sounded like the magic bucket kid in his ted talk.
@@cookieboss904 Yea, this is clearly a case of her thinking she can't be taken seriously unless she makes her voice deeper and closer to a stereotypical male voice.
I like that being a stanford dropout is considered some sort of qualification.
Absofrigginlutely! Liz's idol, Steve Jobs: dropout. Bill Gates: dropout.
@@originalhgc difference being steve and bill dropped because they had the information they needed, she dropped because she's a lazy bitch
@@squidblaster3327 exactly wat i was thinking. She's a spoiled brat that got into stanford because of money. Then dropped out when she realized she couldn't cut it. Her neighbors were millionaires so obviously her parents had money and connections. Her board of directors lets you know her family had insane connections.
Evidently dropping out of Harvard is - as evidenced by them inducting her.
What about having shopped at the Sanford Mall, LOL.
I had a highlighter marker with orange liquid ink that you could see in an inner chamber. I was aware that tetracycline or some similar antibiotics
were used as a brightly coloured dye and ink in some highlighters. One day I noticed a blob of mould had begun to grow inside the ink chamber.
I figured anything that could grow and thrive in pure liquid antibiotics was likely to kill me. I Got rid of it but still stay awake at night worrying it might return.
This is someone who really took the "Fake it till you make it" bullshit to heart. Never ever do that!
Seeing as her father was a VP at Enron, it appears that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
People look upto these billionaires as "inspiring" and "role-models" but fail to understand the value of nepotism and having parents with deep pockets. The whole game is rigged
@@thecompanioncube4211 people just cling to "rags to riches" myths because the reality that rich people in majority tend to come from already rich backgrounds isn't a very nice outlook.
The chances that a legitimately poor person can make their way to millions or even billions, is less than 10%. Regardless of how hard you work.
Unfortunately, self made millionaires generally are not a thing. When we say self made, we usually mean they got a bunch of money from third parties to start themselves off.

Just a tiny little Wikipedia quote:
"Elizabeth Holmes was born in Washington, D.C. Her father, Christian Rasmus Holmes IV, was a vice president at Enron"
so, she was prequalified from birth to be a scumbag?
Ah, the deception runs in the family!
lmao this is amazing
That's interesting - and supporting the idea that pathological fraudsters actually have a deficiency which gives them a totally distorted view of reality and therefore the confidence that no rules apply to them. Their (unjustified) confidence in themselves is then misread as competence by others...
Its a awesome quote, but next time put in the link -> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Holmes#Early_life
It only takes seconds, leaves no doubts and in the world we live in right now we need facts more than anything else.
i like the swag "dude, manspreading" look in the interview in comparison with those innocent puppy eyes when she was saying "i dont know i dont think it is...".
Hope she enjoys doing arts and crafts at whatever Camp Cupcake she's sent to. Eleven years will give her plenty of time to practice.
She faked everything. Her intelligence, her wardrobe, heck, HER VOICE!
I thought her voice was so odd. How the hell do you fake a voice that's that low.
She faked her voice to rhe point of cringe on that TED stage.
It's called "Vocal fry" many females do this to try and sound "intelligent and powerful". If you ever watch "The Bachelor" that show is full or morons using Vocal Fry to try and sound intelligent.

Yeah, there's never been a scammer ever before lol
Well this has been done before.....Enron
i'd argue she didn't even do that.
This one strikes particularly home for me as a biomed ingeneer. I still remember reading about Theranos and the Edison and what Elizabeth Holmes claimed her machine could do and I still remember my project director shruging his face in disbelief and then laughing out loud. He knew full well that the Edison was either a fever dream or a scam because they needed a generational breakthrough to enable to the Edison to perform all the tasks they said it could do and that breakthrough simply didn't exist.
Hi there coleague! I hope you are kicking ass in your field
You just can't put a whole pharmacy of meds in a wristband.

The media never pushes actual successful women like Mary Barra and Ginni Rometty because it doesn't sell. Unfortunately, they're not young overnight successes. They got there through a lifetime of hard work. The media even kept pushing Marissa Mayer even though she was a terrible CEO and eventually tanked Yahoo. They kept propping her up because she had the pretty blonde look.
Lisa Su has been getting more and more attention, and I love it. She just radiates intelligence, and what she is doing with AMD is amazing.
Marissa Mayer was in a trap. I feel she had a chance, but Yahoo's activist investment board was hammering the media with character assassination after character assassination with pressuring her to shut down her projects before they can take off. One of the firms is SpringOwl.
The Asian lady who runs AMD? AMD are killing it these days.
Carly Fiorina on the other hand nearly ran HP into the ground.
Just was going to say about AMD.
Let's not forget about Marilyn Monroe, Madeleine L'Engle, Margaret Thatcher, Oprah Winfrey, Madonna, J. K. Rowling, Lady Gaga, Angela Merkel or Billie Ellish.
She tanked Yahoo, Tumblr, Flickr... Yahoo is an afterthought now
She just did a scam. That's what scammers do.
I'm more appalled by all those high profile investors, and even the state itself, who believed her without any proof.
Lmfao you're more appalled by the people that fell for it than the perpetrator of the actual crime? Lmao makes sense
@@mitchmaule6517 yes. It takes a dumbass to fall for this shit

This wasn't a new invention btw. We had ISTAT in the ER and was just for emergency level testing. It was fairly accurate but it was only used until the main lab ran the blood. They're important, but a critically low potassium might be slightly high in 15min when the real lab runs it. Not often, but it happens.
For those interested.
The Trial of Holmes will begin in 8/31/2021 at 09:00 AM in San Jose, Courtroom 4, 5th Floor before Judge Edward J. Davila.
Thank you
Sadly, I suspect she won't serve a day in prison. She's married to a wealthy man (so she can afford the best legal defense), she's an attractive white woman (so the courts will already be predisposed to be lenient) and she hurried to get pregnant (so not only was the trial delayed, although Covid was also to blame, but she will garner sympathy from the jury....what monster would separate an expecting mother from her newborn child? Oh the humanity).
She’s white: innocent. Maybe a slap on the wrist.
If she was black and the daughter of a McDonald’s manager she would have been flown tried in North Korea
She will get the same treatment a female teacher gets when having a sexual relationship with her underage student:. A slap on her hand! This is the hypocrisy of women and society regarding gender equality, where women ONLY want equally when it's CONVENIENT!
What a joke!!
@@Ergenizwell luckily that aged like milk!
Blood tests are important.
My best friend died when we couldn't remember his blood type. As he died he kept saying "be positive" but it's hard without him.
Lmfao
Too funny!
Quite an old joke but it still gets me
This is why I internet
Sorry about your friend. It's always difficult to lose someone who is close to you. I've had my share of that. My mother, my girlfriend and my best friend during the same twelve months.
Years ago I had to find out my blood type as a requirement for getting my SCCA racing drivers novice permit. It was to be attached to the back of our helmets. I got my blood tested and told the hospital why I needed it. When I called back a couple of weeks later they refused to tell me my blood type. I had a friend who worked there and he was able to let me know my type, A+.
If you have a serious racing accident the medical personnel need to know what blood type to test first. If you need an emergency transfusion time is of the essence.

Her eyes look like lifeless glass, immediately gives off crazy vibes...
You're recognizing the calculating, delusional stare of a psychopath.
She looks weirdly similar to Mark Zuckerberg.
Yeah like she would poison her husband because he didn't take out the trash.
Robotic, brainwashed, CIA pawn.
She doesn't blink. That might be the problem. It's an affectation, as practiced and intentional as the deep voice.
I'm pretty sure she's a straight up sociopath, sounds like she needs a professional psychiatric evaluation.
11 years ...
This scandal reminded me of the 20th Century motor company, started by Liz Carmichael in the 70s, who promised a fuel efficient car called the "Dale". The timeline of that scandal practically mimics that one.
Also, I'm glad Theranos failed. As a phlebotomist, I cannot tell you how many people tried to rub in my face how I'd "be out of a job soon" because of this Company. It was so insulting and rude to see how many people were gleefully looking forward to the demise of my career. Not that I don't think the idea is great, but some people where so rude about it.
UK car maker Reliant tried it with America utilising its Reliant Zoe which was basically a tiny three wheel car with a Jaguar back axle sticking out like two very sore thumbs either side at the back. The whole saga is worth researching up on, how a slick car salesman was so sure it was America's next big "thing" and how very few were sold because the "brains" stateside had convinced themselves the American public would flock to it, they found out that ignoring the very real American public who looked at it and laughed... a lot... and studiously failed to buy it at any price.

More like behind Iron Bars
There are only 2 true Iron ladies. One was the unfuckable Margeret Fetcher, the 2nd is a medieval torture device.
First iron lady. Iron maiden

9:18 As a nurse myself - How the fck did anyone fall for this? Even governments that usually analyze, investigate, review options carefully that they buy for their health care facilities, patients?
Did none ask how you could fit a pharmacy into that small thing? Antibiotics is basicaly the worst to store, prepare and release into the bloodstream. The shelf-life is so bad, the substance is so sensitive to stuff like light, heat and the like. The common ones are prepared by mixing around 20ml of distilled water or NaCl in a bottle with a antibiotic mixture, carefully, then injected slowly into a vein over around 3 - 5 minutes because of the potential to cause an anaphylactic shock if the patient is allergic to the particular antibiotic. Is that thing going to do all this, and monitor the patient at the same time? How, mechanically, does it pump this into the bloodstream?
If its connected to a vein then there's all kinds of stuff that needs to be monitored, prevented and fixed. A sh*tload of potentiall problems in a short amount of time. Did none even question this at all?
Just.. jesus christ.
I recommend you read John Carreyrou's book, "Bad Blood." If you think you're angry now, you'll be positively furious once you've read the account of her fraud. 😡
The TL:DR is:
>She positioned her "black box" in a regulatory grey zone
>She had *powerful* family connections
>She monitored and threatened her staff relentlessly.
>Above all, Holmes had an inspirational backstory that Silicon Valley, VC funds, & the press went ga-ga over.
The company was privately held. She sold stock to a handful of wealthy men who were easily charmed.
TO be clear Elizabeth's wrongdoing in no way is a mark on females in STEM as a group, the person who ended up taking down Theranos was also a woman Erika Chung

Because she's a women and people wanted it to be true so they ignored all the red flags
This happens a lot. We seem to have a good track record of fawning over huksters. Theranos, wework... most every pot fueled dumb idea Musk tweets out.

She has now been jailed 11 years for fraud! Justice!

Detecting all diseases using a single drop of blood is like saying you could see a full 4K picture from a single pixel. It’s impossible
Wait but that’s a good analogy
Or a car engine that's 10x smaller, 10x fuel efficient, 10x cheaper....
the smaller is not the hard part. it's the other two that are difficult.
@@daszieher They could do all three of those (smaller, more efficient, cheaper), but it would just be an expensive gasoline-powered heat generator, as it would be useless for doing any work.
Not just detecting but predicting the onset of diseases years in advance....
Hey, she showed 'em that a whamen can be a scammer too! Down with the patriarchy!

27:12 glad you mentioned this. I only once panicked in my life at the doctor. It wasn’t over a needle, intravenous, intracutaneous or intramuscular. I only panicked over the horrid pricky thingy with this mean looking metal tooth they used on the fingertips.
A huge red flag for me about that woman's tech is, how did she skip step one: reducing the amount of blood required for each of those tests individually?
" I'm sorry to interrupt your eloquent presentation Richard,but rather than say anything more why don't I give you a file and we'll see if this thing can do what you say it does?

I sincerely hope she gets 20 years in prison and has to serve every single day.

You’re right! At the point when everyone still believed that a company had found a way to test blood much more conveniently, the only interesting part of the story they could see was the vagina ownership of the founder. Kinda missing the point of the landmark advancement of medicine.
Mr Funreal age and gender certainly do make a difference. Age offers experience that only years can bring and on average males are slightly more intelligent than females not to mention gender differences that make males aggressive. Lying to investors also helps too.
Well what do you expect from a news agency or any stage host? They are gonna use those buzz words that make something seem impressive.
My red flag went up when they said drop out. Not a very good thing to hear when talking about medical stuff lol
Mr Funreal you would think! However never under estimate the feminist desire to put a beat down on the Patriarchy blinds them to rationalize thought, checks and balances...they see their path threw a straw, which at the end of the day of it all goes wrong..they’ll just turn her into the victim and blame men for the disaster.

Lmao look at the turtlenecks she insists on wearing as if she's Steve Jobs
True :P
I think that was the whole reason she wore them in the first place if I remember correctly
HEY! A black turtleneck is a chic and wearable option!
considering she lowered her voice and altered her accent, I wouldn't be surprised at all.
She really idolized Steve Jobs. She flat-out said that. A lot of her quotes sound like him and she even started having meetings on Wednesdays after Jobs said he always had meetings on Wednesdays. Stuff like that. She started dressing like him and claims she always did it from childhood, but there's no older pictures of her in them.

Exactly. As soon as I heard it I thought it was a put-on.

I found the Star Trek comparison interesting because we have moved past some of the tech featured especially the communicators and are still a million miles from others especially the med tech.
I looked at the miniLab paper and I have to say the tragic behind this is also that Theranos apparently had some good engineers and scientists for some time, which would have maybe, given enough time, come up with a valid product. Of course not the magic beans that were promised, but atleast something that could compete with the market. (with the Siemens product etc.). But the utterly incompotence of the management and missing of quality leadership did not allow for a success and lead to a lot of people losing their jobs or leaving in frustation and despair.

I try to correspond by email until I meet someone with all work related things. Actually, I wish that I could do that romantically too, but I am not bothering with that at all anymore. When I speak on the phone, I have the voice of a young viral star on Tik Tok. People ask to speak to my mum, thinking that my daughter, (that I don't have), has picked up my phone. I even introduce myself when I answer, but they still do it. If I could believably deepen my voice, I would do it in a heartbeat.
