The fact that she does not have a single academic certificate in either medicine or engineering would tell you as much, yet she told the world that she came up with the idea and patents for the various tech and methodology to test blood and a full set of medical ailments from a single tiny blood sample vial barely larger than a pinky finger, while others with even much more qualified and experienced in such field have not done so after all this time.
@@TheRealBizWiz , It’s sad how wrong so many people are, and what’s worse is they act on it.

Ask Elizabeth Holmes: "Do you breathe air?" She'd reply: "Oxygen is a critical component in our atmosphere and I deem it deeply important to our collective survival. You see, when I was a young girl...."
I used to deepen my voice on purpose in order to sound more "respectable." As I got to listen this lady, I realized how ridiculous that was and how forced I must've sounded. I stopped ridiculing myself. Thanks, Mrs. Holmes. You have changed my life.
Holmes: Good question. Well you see. I want to help people get lab tests done faster, easier, and cheaper. The haters gonna hate cuz we disrupting their business, so they're gunna be trying to break us down :) Honest answer: In reality, our device can only do few of the 250+ tests we offer. But it also has only around 50% accuracy rate, due to blood from the fingerprick is highly contaminated, and too little volume to analyze properly. We fixed this by secretly buying conventional blood analyzers from third parties to run these tests with fingerprick blood, diluted the samples with saline to get enough volume to fit in these commercial analyzers, and improved the accuracy rate to 55%. That's the real innovations we came up with. So basically, it's as accurate as flipping a coin for positive and negative test results. I dont understand why the medical regulators shut us down. We're only charging up to 90% off the retail price of lab tests. I'm making it so much accessible to the public. My board members, who have extensive knowledge and experiences in the government and politics, all support my vision and goals to help people.
Ladies, don't ever let any man tell you that you're not capable of defrauding major banks, angel investors, patients, and the general public out of several billion dollars. Because you can. Just point them to Elizabeth Holmes 🙌🙌🙌🙌
More specifically, white ladies. Any person of colour would have been probed and vetted 10 times more. I guess those old white guys saw their daughters in her. 🤔
I also believe it's because she has/had no real passion for what she was doing, as it was all faked/staged. A businessperson who has a genuine passion for what they're involved in can spread that passion and excitement in an almost infectious manner amongst other individuals. She was only focussed on putting on a deep voice, killing time in interviews, and speaking professional sounding words. No passion there at all.
@@justinblackett yes, agree 100%. She was too focused on showing that "she care" about people's health and not just about money, fame, looking like Steve Jobs...
7:11 how can you run all these tests, with such a small amount of blood, and why hasn’t anyone done this before?? “Sure, so our belief fundamentally is that the answer to our challenges in health care, lies in engaging and empowering the individual.”
Maybe I don’t und because I hadn’t heard of this until very recently, but I don’t see how no one realized that she had no idea what she was talking about.
She managed to fool people for 15 years, spend money she didn't earn, live lavish life and not end up in prison. Sound like a time of success... no matter what comes next
Actually, her voice sounds better than most Americans'. Sounds better to me than show host's for example. I tend to hear Americans shutting down their vocal chords, preventing them from vibrating naturally, even though paradoxically they have the reputation to be very loud.
She wanted so desperately to be Steve Jobs. From the way she dressed, her body language, to the deepening of her voice to appear more masculine. It's quite embarrassing how little of Elizabeth Holmes' real personality actually exists. All of this is just her pretending to be someone she idolized.
@@IceColdProfessional Embarrassing? Of course it's embarrassing and disgusting! Wouldn't you be embarrassed if your sister or daughter was FAKING her voice trying to be someone she's NOT and DEFRAUDING people along the way??? But then, you probably come from a family of crooks, so no nothing else o be ashamed of!
IvyleagueCutie89 she should definitely be in jail. I live in Pennsylvania which is 1 of only 3 states that Theranos was in. I ended up having to get a regular blood test anyway... it was a big waste of my time and money(even though it wasn’t much). I don’t know how she lied to people and not just anybody but people making medical decisions. She should truly be ashamed of herself.
IvyleagueCutie89 I think she started with good intentions and she had a really good idea... unfortunately it never worked. I think she got in over her head way too fast. They should of never went live with blood tests that never worked. I think she was hoping that they would eventually get it to work and she was trying to buy more time... but I don’t feel bad for her. She knew what she was doing and she was messing with people’s lives.
IvyleagueCutie89 definitely. I think things got out of control really fast and then she was too embarrassed to turn around and admit that if never worked.
TC Fenstermaker it wasn’t a Walgreens. It was a regular clinic I believe. My insurance provider Blue Cross Blue Shield was using Theranos for blood tests.
I think this is not her natural voice, definitely something she's been working on. A deep voice, conveys persuasion, authority, etc. very useful to be successful in business
@Shispirina how is it sexist? Maybe you have a confirmation bias and your brain is programmed to scan for any sign of sexism. I’m against sexism, but there is not one whiff of it in the comment. Where does it say anything negative about men or women?
Ambition doesn't make up for lack of education. This CEO has no baccalaureate degree in any subject. She hasn't even the same education as a medical technologist. MTs must know the sequences of blood analysis for various tests, and, more importantly, the bio- and organic chemistry behind them. This enterprise (Theranos) was doomed to failure for nothing else than the ignorance of the leadership in the very field they were trying to conquer. For this, Ms Holmes should be held fully accountable.
This interviewer did a good job, she asked the right questions. I believe that she should have pushed harder when the answers didn't add up, she was probably trying to keep the audience comfortable at the expense of full exposure. 🌹
She couldn't push Liz when she gave non-answers. If she had, she would have been called ANTI-WOMAN and ANTI-TECHNOLOGY. She just went along with the fraud.
She is probably one of the best interviewers I have seen on RUclips she was asking the right questions before most people smelled what was wrong. She deserves a lot of credit. Excellent job catching a con job.
Huh? She gets to the board composition and instead of noticing that there are no science/medical people, asks why no women. The interviewer failed to pick up on anything.
She is great! It is amazing how she dogde questions and speaks a lot without saying anything concrete. WOW...just great!.The look, the way she moves and talks even the voice...perfect! She should be a politician.
All I can say is that my mother was undergoing kidney dialysis treatment and had many other ailments and she constantly needed to get stuck with needles in order for blood to be taken. It was a torment for her. If this woman had created such a device (or if her scientists had as she never pretended to be a scientist) it would have been such a godsend to so many I can see why regular people prayed for this technology to be real. What's harder to understand is how investors did not look closely at her claims before going in for even a dollar never mind millions of them.
I'm a phlebotomist and I agree. This would have been an great for very hard sticks. I knew, however, that this was a fraud. The first question I asked myself was - how can you do all those tests on whole blood?
I guess the reason for investors not looking closely at her claims is the same one you yourself said. People really wanted to believe her. Still surprising how no one ever got a straight answer from her. They said she was "charming". Personally, I don't see it. She's clearly into the aesthetics more than the science itself.
Odd voice, sure sounds like she's trying to imitate Obama, but I suspect she's also fighting either a valley girl accent, vocal fry or a severe case of up talking.
"My mission is to lie, cheat, fraud and manipulate my way to the top and to do so while dressing, acting, and sounding like Steve Jobs." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
The fact that lot of people with money are not intelligent and that people who are intelligent don’t speak up and that there are some completely unconscientious humans is what this lady’s story reveals.
Q: “Can you talk about the innovations? How do you actually do this?” A: “We believe that under the framework in the context of individual empowerment, for each person and as a case of fundamental human rights of citizenship, the freedom of integrity and process can make the experience in and of itself accessible by connecting the information to the understanding of a paradigm shift in the lives of our customers, not just operating on tiny volumes of blood and chemistries, but redefining, redeveloping, and reducing the pre-analytical and post-analytical processes where 93% of the error and variability is introduced into the software on the front-end, that allows us to do the integrated testing through additional services around this that fundamentally allow us to engage people as a vehicle for access to this technology.” *confused applause*
Oh yeah...sure yeah I get it. That makes so much sense. Wow. Brilliant. She is soooo smart. Engagement to facilitate the prediabetic lifestyle fortitudes. It’s so brilliant! We call this verbal diarrhea. I truly hope she is sent to prison for no less than 60 years. Ideally she never sees her child ever again once in prison.
She really likes words. Big words, little words. Her favorites are "contextual, empowerment, fundamental, paradigm shift, pre-analytical and engagement". She uses these words whenever she is dodging a question. Maybe she can help Big Shirley with her vocabulary in prison.
@@AbbyC543 I agree with your assessment 'in the context of' the greater freedom of individual choice, while broadening our full potential. ('Hold on, i have to take another shot of testosterone')
How did NOBODY see through her? She says a lot without saying anything. There’s no substance there, it’s all smoke and mirrors. She’s nothing more than a sleazy used car salesman selling you a known clunker.
She made it so much harder for some many honest women enterpreneurs to come. If she had any dignity she would have resigned and apologized years before WSJ publication.
Elizabeth is actually doing what every company and politician does. Appeal to the emotional part of the brain which will prevent the critical part of the brain taking over. Hey, all we're doing is alleaving very real fears that people have of needles, why are you trying to destroy that? Think of all of the poor people for whom needles is a traumatic experience everytime they need labwork done. We couldn't get the government to answer questions about 9/11 because it's not possible to get past the emotional smoke screens. How dare you ask if the government knew anything about the attacks beforehand, we're talking about 3000 dead people here. Biden gets away with not having to explain anything because he's too busy distracting people with emotional stories about his family or using the hardships of families and all of this emotional reteoric that prevents people from asking hard questions. No one wants to look like a heartless asshole and Elizabeth preyed on that.
I'm just going around to all these old videos that gush over her to point out to the producer that they helped Holmes defraud people and possibly endangered lives through inaccurate medical testing. She couldn't have done it without you!!!
FreedomForever2010 this is a very silly comment. Here we have a company who had received FDA approval and had products already for sale in pharmacies all over the country. What do you want a TV host to do? They don't have the economical power nor a deep understanding of science to be able to expose a technology fraud of this proportion. This is why the taxpayers pay handsomely the regulatory bodies and lawmakers. They are the ones to blame here. Along the lack of due diligence from Walgreens.
@@Sobchak2 they anointed her because she was a blonde female wearing Steve Jobs' turtlenecks. There are plenty of folks with FDA approved products who haven't been mentioned in the press one single time, so that had nothing to do with it. It's not a silly comment at all. They are complicit.
It's infuriating to watch this. When the moderator asks about the innovation, Holmes talks about "empowerment", "engagement", and "human rights". Utter bullshit and a red flag right there. Moderator asks a follow-up question. Holmes bullshits her way through that as well.
She doesn't cope well with women you can see she's very tense and her words are very stifled. This reporter is very shrewd and is asking the right questions - credit to the reporter she was already very suspicious: 7:03 reporter asks 'what is the innovation?' Holmes goes off for 10 minutes about the world cup. Then again at 10:51 reporter again asks 'help us understand your technology' to which Holmes replies: 'we recreated every test and made it smaller - it took really long but we did it' lol. Then at 15:55 report confronts Holmes about only having very well connected very old white men on her board the reporter literally says 'its you and a bunch of old men'. Holmes cannot fool this reporter because the reporter is young and beautiful and so is on to her - this reporter smells a rat and can see: 1) Holmes has not made any great leaps in innovation 2) Her persona is forced and fake 3) She got to where she is by leveraging the influence of the powerful old white men on her board 4) She got the powerful old white men on her board in part because she is a young blonde haired blued eye slim fairly attractive woman This reporter aint buying it what Holmes is selling. Holmes should insist all future reporter are old men - shed have a much easier time. Anyway as of writing Holmes has been indicted on wire fraud charges. She can use that deep voice to find a girlfriend in prison. I don't think they allow black turtle necks in jail...oh and Steve Jobs was never indicted and never went to prison...
Holy hell - she relied on a deeper ignorance of the system than the ignorance that she was supposedly resolving with “actionable healthcare”. Then she launched and put lives at risk - causing actual harm - while giving media interviews trying to become “too big to fail”. Watching this has actually made me believe she deserves prison.
it's weird bc you really do lose track of what she's even talking about and then it kinda starts to make sense, she's hypnotizing, throw enough percentages and jargon out with stopping and you will sound smart
I didn't fall for oohing and ahhing over her. I distinctly remember thinking "O boy, not another 'genius worth billions' having not sold anything yet..."... So that kinda makes me not part of "everyone being smart after the fact".
The interviewer asked at 7.13s how she able to do it but she did not answer the question so again at 10.57s she asked again how she is able to make this happen and again Elizabeth did not answer the question. The interviewer was already suspicious because she did say that she was very secretive for along time. She must have believed that it could be done at some point and was hoping that it would be sooner rather than later.
Notice at 11:16 she laughs & sounds a bit high-pitched but then immediately changes her voice to sounding deep again! I am so mind blown that she was able to con so many people.
Absolutely breathtaking that she was able to pull the wool over so many eyes. Probably took all the sheep in England scotland and new Zealand. I dont believe she even listened to the question how come someone hasn't done this yet. A very good question by the way.
Why it took people so long to figure-out that she was a fraud blows my mind. In all of her interviews (including this one, she NEVER answers direct questions about HOW the machines work, and plays dodgeball by answering unasked questions instead. If she somehow walks from the charges on her, she should run for Kongress- she's got the tap dancing around the subject part down perfectly....
She never engages in any candid discussion which is something the interviewer does quite well. I can’t imagine what some of the more perceptive people felt while watching this. It must have been confusing.
She just said "We made it possible for EVERY lab test to be run on a tiny drop of blood" She said those exact words. There is different technology for different testing assays. She would have had to invent a lot of different methods of testing for that statement to be true.
@@dewilew2137 Overly staring, frequently breaking eye contact when speaking, nodding constantly when others speak, yet shaking head no when she's speaking at specific points. Furthermore, making sly contradicting statements, deflecting from initial topic of question, and overly using hands, asymmetrical facial expression, such as raising eyebrow ---which if you look closely, she does very quickly.
How can you have 700 employees and not get a machine to work without jamming? Wouldn't you also want to be able to demonstrate the ability to actually do the tests in the way that was being proposed (ie. running tests on a tiny drop of blood) before you hired 700 people and raised $1bn. Just insanity.
"At Conus we only use the smallest crapotainers, we have evolved to not taking any blood as we make up the results anyway.' Her claim that she figured this complex field out at 19 to evolve her concept was something that could have been taken apart by any professional.
She should have been asked why there are no medical experts on her board of directors. But of course the the questions were likely already selected by Homes.
What's so funny to me is that you CAN run a glucose test on a single drop of blood. She could have manufactured these machines to test for pre-diabetes, as she mentions in this interview, and marketed the machines as early detection for preventing diabetes, and had the machines available in drugstores the same way we have blood pressure machines in drugstores. That would have been an incredible product and it would have been so marketable... she literally had all the components to do it. But she lied instead.
@@Yuyayayu872 The Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz created his own finger prick company called Healthyr that is an actual realistic version of what Theranos was capable of doing - and his company is ethical and successful. My point is that she could have marketed the company based on what her machines were ACTUALLY capable of doing instead of lying about things it couldn’t do.
But her machine got it very badly wrong on a guy who sought an alternative test through his own doctor for pre-diabetic condition. His HBA1C was actually normal, so had he relied on the Theranos test, he could have been placed on medication which in turn could lead to his death. ☠️ Her process was not proven accurate in any consistent manner at that time. Simple little hand held glucometers have been around for decades now, and very successfully.
Holmes is less interesting than that interviewer and the audience's willingness to believe in magical thinking and to completely suspend any intelligent thought about what they were drawn into. We want to be told there are painless solutions to the struggles in life and are willing to believe those who offer them.
Holmes' shut-down company was purported to give immediate results while interacting with your doctor, yet the tests were taken in a Walgreen's, not with a doctor. Also, the Fortune interviewer got her Theranos results within 24 hours and only then could email with her doctor...no immediate on-the-spot interaction, as stated by Holmes. Also, traditional lab tests already detect diseases early. Holmes' played on heartstrings about "fundamentally not having to say good-by too soon", but that's what traditional testing already does. Holmes' desire to promote her sense of success overshadowed her really caring about people's health. For one year, she was in an engineering program at Stanford but never became an engineer nor a scientist nor was she medically-trained. Oversight and regulation fell through the cracks.
She literally says nothing of value or substance. Every interview I watch, it's impossible to figure out what she or her company does exactly other than marketing and storytelling
How is it possible that we all realized how crazy her answers were and yet the savviest investors and influential business magazine editors kept fueling her delusions?
Because they weren’t saavy investors. They got greedy and fell for the scam. I mean none of those “smart” people found it weird that there are no other medical investors and no doctors on the board?
It's so weird how she always manages to jump from "we have made it possible" to "if we could make it possible" and back again. I just find it odd that she can do that without people just saying "is this just an impossible dream? Is it a would, a could, an is, a should, a have, a not, a what?! A what not?! Perhaps a maybe? Why are you wearing Steve Jobs's jumper?"🥚😳🧐
Ian Gibbons from Theranos committed suicide As a real intelligent scientist. Ian Gibbons killed himself due to long term work place bullying and abuse, work place intimidation and work place humiliation, devaluing, threats and toxic work environment from Elizabeth Holmes. I do not care about the investors. To them, It is just a bad investment and just money. But Elizabeth Holmes had destroyed a real scientist Ian Gibbons (biochemist). Ian Gibbons Who approached the entire process rigorously like a real science with high standard. Elizabeth Holmes has no education, no degree, no experience, NOTHING to offer but just talking shit. If there is anything had actually been done, if anything actually been invented, it is done by Ian Gibbons (biochemist). Elizabeth claimed all his work as her invention. It is like I say “I want to build a time machine” and someone else actually done all the work and had actually invented the time machine, can I claim that I invented time machine just because I publicly spoke that idea first? If that is the case, I said about the similar idea of doing blood test 20 years ago long before Elizabeth Holmes. I am the real inventor of everything then. held a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Cambridge.[2] He spent 30 years working on diagnostic and therapeutic products at various technology companies including Biotrack Laboratories. At Biotrack, he worked with Channing Robertson, who later recommended him as the first experienced scientist hired by Theranos. Gibbons, Robertson and others invented and patented a mechanism at Biotrack to dilute and mix liquid samples, abilities which would become key in Theranos processes.
@si si That is so true I always think of Ian Gibbons, especially when Elizabeth talks about not having to “say goodbye to soon.” I have seen on the HBO documentary where his widow said theranos did not even contact her or offer condolences. They just asked for his top-secret paperwork back. Cold.
mtmcas Elizabeth is really just a liar, a con, a manipulator, they do not care if you are live or dead, people still have not got out of the “glory” imagination from her bullshit. Still thinking her words? All those are lies...
I have such a hard time understanding how and why someone would start and develop this company all on the basis of lies. I just don’t get it. Misleading investors is just too much of a risk. And she just seems to genuinely believe in what she’s saying. I don’t get it.
she is a narc, she thought she is better than everyone else and if she has money she will build this technology. but when it did not work for a long time, that time instead of telling the truth she stuck with lies. instead of saying okay we wasted millions and it still isnt working, she decided to put lives of people at risk. all for her mental issues. she is also a sociopath.
I wonder if she believed until the very end that over time they would make the device work. She just kept asking for more time (just finished The Dropout serie).
Her question after is a legit good question but Elizabeth doesnt answer her. “Why hasn’t anyone thought of this..” “how do you analyze so much from so little blood”
this is the reason why women like Elizabeth Holmes can easily manipulate people's mind towards their way. Finding gorgeousness was not the topic of this interview.
A HUGE FACTOR to not diagnosing is doctors and hospitals who do not care, bias, and discriminate. Even the Center for Rare Diseases this year publicized the natl crisis of not diagnosing. The med estblishment needs to be enforced to fairly and timely diagnose. Many female heart attack and stroke victims are not only not diagnosed, but patient dumped or purposely libelled in med records. The common innacuracies in med records is disturbingly high. Many are very surprised if ever see the dr notes. ACCESS to med records is another issue absurdly complicated by struggles to get them, again by the out of control med establishment, who in GENERAL, REALLy do not care about us.
We’re most people really having an issue with getting stuck at a lab (or at home if receiving visiting nurses services) and then waiting 3-7 days for the results? How did she convince people that getting results in 1-2 days instead of 7 would be life changing?
She has an honorary Culinary PHD from the Sarah Palin University of Professional Word-Salad Delivery (PWSD), albeit presented with a more flowing, and tactful SaladShooter output than the University's namesake.
Interviewer: What are the innovations at Theranos Liz: Empowering and connecting with people if she is answering like this, I think the investors knew from the very beginning that there was NO such technology. I think this whole thing happened with a purpose and once it was served the same people dissolved the company
What baffles me is that she made false claims about medical technology for *over a dozen years* without ever being called out by a medical professional. No doctors on her board (of course), and I don't think she was ever profiled in a medical journal or doctor show. This invention was going to change the field of medicine, yet no one with a medical background noticed or questioned? Crazy. Crazy!!
She is a master in going around a specific question without really answering it. A borage of words with hand gestures and mimicking a baritone opera singer.
Yes, she is a master at dodging and ducking.
Not all that great actually. If anything- what should be acknowledged here was always the gullibility of her audience

Actually, her voice sounds better than most Americans'. Sounds better to me than show host's for example. I tend to hear Americans shutting down their vocal chords, preventing them from vibrating naturally, even though paradoxically they have the reputation to be very loud.
I'm blown away this lady got as far as she did.

Look at Biden. This guy can't even speak or find his way.
She wanted so desperately to be Steve Jobs. From the way she dressed, her body language, to the deepening of her voice to appear more masculine. It's quite embarrassing how little of Elizabeth Holmes' real personality actually exists. All of this is just her pretending to be someone she idolized.
Embarrassing? Why? A lot of so-called "affluent" people believed it.
Like one of the whistleblowers said: “She desperately wanted to be Steve Jobs, so she created a world were she was”

Embarrassing? Of course it's embarrassing and disgusting! Wouldn't you be embarrassed if your sister or daughter was FAKING her voice trying to be someone she's NOT and DEFRAUDING people along the way??? But then, you probably come from a family of crooks, so no nothing else o be ashamed of!
And steve jobs voice was in a high pitch.
Jobs was an asshole and rode off the coattails of Wozniak and many others. Very ironic.
Thanks for the $15 blood test Elizabeth!! It didn’t tell me shit... but hey! At least I could afford it!
IvyleagueCutie89 she should definitely be in jail. I live in Pennsylvania which is 1 of only 3 states that Theranos was in. I ended up having to get a regular blood test anyway... it was a big waste of my time and money(even though it wasn’t much). I don’t know how she lied to people and not just anybody but people making medical decisions. She should truly be ashamed of herself.
IvyleagueCutie89 I heard that she is thinking of starting a new company... horrible.
IvyleagueCutie89 I think she started with good intentions and she had a really good idea... unfortunately it never worked. I think she got in over her head way too fast. They should of never went live with blood tests that never worked. I think she was hoping that they would eventually get it to work and she was trying to buy more time... but I don’t feel bad for her. She knew what she was doing and she was messing with people’s lives.
IvyleagueCutie89 definitely. I think things got out of control really fast and then she was too embarrassed to turn around and admit that if never worked.
TC Fenstermaker it wasn’t a Walgreens. It was a regular clinic I believe. My insurance provider Blue Cross Blue Shield was using Theranos for blood tests.

Legend
Ambition doesn't make up for lack of education. This CEO has no baccalaureate degree in any subject. She hasn't even the same education as a medical technologist. MTs must know the sequences of blood analysis for various tests, and, more importantly, the bio- and organic chemistry behind them. This enterprise (Theranos) was doomed to failure for nothing else than the ignorance of the leadership in the very field they were trying to conquer. For this, Ms Holmes should be held fully accountable.
Ignoorance of the investors as well. Becausee it is clear she has no skills to argument the plan.
She speaks better than most medical technologist I know. Education has nothing to do with this.
Education doesn't equal intelligence.
@Donquixote Doflamingo 🤣🤣🤣 u 1000000% right
This interviewer did a good job, she asked the right questions. I believe that she should have pushed harder when the answers didn't add up, she was probably trying to keep the audience comfortable at the expense of full exposure. 🌹
Interviewer could have timed herself. Use last 5 mins to pop out the DA
She couldn't push Liz when she gave non-answers.
If she had, she would have been called ANTI-WOMAN and ANTI-TECHNOLOGY. She just went along with the fraud.
Perfect weasle strategy. Don't answer the question they asked, answer the question you wish they asked.
She is probably one of the best interviewers I have seen on RUclips she was asking the right questions before most people smelled what was wrong. She deserves a lot of credit. Excellent job catching a con job.
Right. She did better than others.
Do you really think she was onto her? I don’t see it?
Huh? She gets to the board composition and instead of noticing that there are no science/medical people, asks why no women. The interviewer failed to pick up on anything.

She had a board of men that have ZERO background in medicine on purpose. If they had a med background, she would have been found out muuuuuch earlier.
That’s why she didn’t have any med backgrounders
But to throw so much money into something you dont understand baffles me.
All I can say is that my mother was undergoing kidney dialysis treatment and had many other ailments and she constantly needed to get stuck with needles in order for blood to be taken. It was a torment for her. If this woman had created such a device (or if her scientists had as she never pretended to be a scientist) it would have been such a godsend to so many I can see why regular people prayed for this technology to be real. What's harder to understand is how investors did not look closely at her claims before going in for even a dollar never mind millions of them.
The investors who looked closely refused to invest!! The other had more money than sense
I'm a phlebotomist and I agree. This would have been an great for very hard sticks. I knew, however, that this was a fraud. The first question I asked myself was - how can you do all those tests on whole blood?
I guess the reason for investors not looking closely at her claims is the same one you yourself said. People really wanted to believe her. Still surprising how no one ever got a straight answer from her. They said she was "charming". Personally, I don't see it. She's clearly into the aesthetics more than the science itself.
I think some people just got good old fashioned greedy. Been with the human race a loooong time.
The fact that she answered none of the questions - i.e. provided no actual information - should have been an enormous red flag.
Odd voice, sure sounds like she's trying to imitate Obama, but I suspect she's also fighting either a valley girl accent, vocal fry or a severe case of up talking.
more like Brett Butler.
Exactly my thought, even the voice pauses and the hand mannerisms.
Yeah, she's definitely taking cues from Obama on how she answers questions
What is up talking?
"My mission is to lie, cheat, fraud and manipulate my way to the top and to do so while dressing, acting, and sounding like Steve Jobs."
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
and you still are accurate on this!
Whistleblowers: her work is dangerous and she's a fraud who should be in prison.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. 😅
The fact that lot of people with money are not intelligent and that people who are intelligent don’t speak up and that there are some completely unconscientious humans is what this lady’s story reveals.
You resumed LIFE.
99% injustices
Q: “Can you talk about the innovations? How do you actually do this?”
A: “We believe that under the framework in the context of individual empowerment, for each person and as a case of fundamental human rights of citizenship, the freedom of integrity and process can make the experience in and of itself accessible by connecting the information to the understanding of a paradigm shift in the lives of our customers, not just operating on tiny volumes of blood and chemistries, but redefining, redeveloping, and reducing the pre-analytical and post-analytical processes where 93% of the error and variability is introduced into the software on the front-end, that allows us to do the integrated testing through additional services around this that fundamentally allow us to engage people as a vehicle for access to this technology.”

Oh yeah...sure yeah I get it. That makes so much sense. Wow. Brilliant. She is soooo smart.
Engagement to facilitate the prediabetic lifestyle fortitudes. It’s so brilliant!
We call this verbal diarrhea.
I truly hope she is sent to prison for no less than 60 years. Ideally she never sees her child ever again once in prison.

She really likes words. Big words, little words. Her favorites are "contextual, empowerment, fundamental, paradigm shift, pre-analytical and engagement". She uses these words whenever she is dodging a question. Maybe she can help Big Shirley with her vocabulary in prison.

What does that has to do with other women. So many male entrepreneurs out there who got away with frauds and never got jailed.
Elizabeth is actually doing what every company and politician does. Appeal to the emotional part of the brain which will prevent the critical part of the brain taking over. Hey, all we're doing is alleaving very real fears that people have of needles, why are you trying to destroy that? Think of all of the poor people for whom needles is a traumatic experience everytime they need labwork done. We couldn't get the government to answer questions about 9/11 because it's not possible to get past the emotional smoke screens. How dare you ask if the government knew anything about the attacks beforehand, we're talking about 3000 dead people here. Biden gets away with not having to explain anything because he's too busy distracting people with emotional stories about his family or using the hardships of families and all of this emotional reteoric that prevents people from asking hard questions. No one wants to look like a heartless asshole and Elizabeth preyed on that.

FreedomForever2010: So true.
FreedomForever2010 this is a very silly comment. Here we have a company who had received FDA approval and had products already for sale in pharmacies all over the country. What do you want a TV host to do? They don't have the economical power nor a deep understanding of science to be able to expose a technology fraud of this proportion. This is why the taxpayers pay handsomely the regulatory bodies and lawmakers. They are the ones to blame here. Along the lack of due diligence from Walgreens.

@@Sobchak2 they anointed her because she was a blonde female wearing Steve Jobs' turtlenecks. There are plenty of folks with FDA approved products who haven't been mentioned in the press one single time, so that had nothing to do with it. It's not a silly comment at all. They are complicit.
Lock her up! Lock her up!

black is the new orange
Her ex Enron executive father taught this psychopath very well.
It's infuriating to watch this. When the moderator asks about the innovation, Holmes talks about "empowerment", "engagement", and "human rights". Utter bullshit and a red flag right there. Moderator asks a
follow-up question. Holmes bullshits her way through that as well.
Your name is Claude Shannon
She doesn't cope well with women you can see she's very tense and her words are very stifled. This reporter is very shrewd and is asking the right questions - credit to the reporter she was already very suspicious: 7:03 reporter asks 'what is the innovation?' Holmes goes off for 10 minutes about the world cup.
Then again at 10:51 reporter again asks 'help us understand your technology' to which Holmes replies: 'we recreated every test and made it smaller - it took really long but we did it' lol.
Then at 15:55 report confronts Holmes about only having very well connected very old white men on her board the reporter literally says 'its you and a bunch of old men'.
Holmes cannot fool this reporter because the reporter is young and beautiful and so is on to her - this reporter smells a rat and can see:
1) Holmes has not made any great leaps in innovation
2) Her persona is forced and fake
3) She got to where she is by leveraging the influence of the powerful old white men on her board
4) She got the powerful old white men on her board in part because she is a young blonde haired blued eye slim fairly attractive woman
This reporter aint buying it what Holmes is selling.
Holmes should insist all future reporter are old men - shed have a much easier time. Anyway as of writing Holmes has been indicted on wire fraud charges. She can use that deep voice to find a girlfriend in prison. I don't think they allow black turtle necks in jail...oh and Steve Jobs was never indicted and never went to prison...
Augustus Gloop

Her interview with G Schultz at Stamford clearly shows how capably she’d wrapped the old fool around her finger.
She did pull off one of the greatest scams in modern history
Holy hell - she relied on a deeper ignorance of the system than the ignorance that she was supposedly resolving with “actionable healthcare”. Then she launched and put lives at risk - causing actual harm - while giving media interviews trying to become “too big to fail”. Watching this has actually made me believe she deserves prison.
She so does deserve prison, and it's satisfying to know that she is in there now. 🙆🏻♀️
She proved media can be easily fooled! She is great! All interviewers now make themselves fun watching these interviews!
Got to hand it to her . . She’s a great salesperson. Everybody is smart “after the fact”
it's weird bc you really do lose track of what she's even talking about and then it kinda starts to make sense, she's hypnotizing, throw enough percentages and jargon out with stopping and you will sound smart
I didn't fall for oohing and ahhing over her. I distinctly remember thinking "O boy, not another 'genius worth billions' having not sold anything yet..."... So that kinda makes me not part of "everyone being smart after the fact".
Do NOT confuse being a great salesperson with being a great "BS"er!!
The interviewer asked at 7.13s how she able to do it but she did not answer the question so again at 10.57s she asked again how she is able to make this happen and again Elizabeth did not answer the question. The interviewer was already suspicious because she did say that she was very secretive for along time. She must have believed that it could be done at some point and was hoping that it would be sooner rather than later.
Exactly… she sounds a bit annoyed that eliz is dodging
Absolutely; good catch!!!
Funny to look back at these interviews. Listen to how hard she is working to keep her voice in the lower Male range! Ugh!
Would have been easier to do sex reassignment surgery.
Apparently the interviewer is an intelligent woman who was not trusting Holmes all the time.
Who is the interviewer???
Notice at 11:16 she laughs & sounds a bit high-pitched but then immediately changes her voice to sounding deep again! I am so mind blown that she was able to con so many people.

Absolutely breathtaking that she was able to pull the wool over so many eyes. Probably took all the sheep in England scotland and new Zealand. I dont believe she even listened to the question how come someone hasn't done this yet. A very good question by the way.
Why it took people so long to figure-out that she was a fraud blows my mind. In all of her interviews (including this one, she NEVER answers direct questions about HOW the machines work, and plays dodgeball by answering unasked questions instead. If she somehow walks from the charges on her, she should run for Kongress- she's got the tap dancing around the subject part down perfectly....
She never engages in any candid discussion which is something the interviewer does quite well. I can’t imagine what some of the more perceptive people felt while watching this. It must have been confusing.
She will look fabulous in orange.
She just said "We made it possible for EVERY lab test to be run on a tiny drop of blood" She said those exact words. There is different technology for different testing assays. She would have had to invent a lot of different methods of testing for that statement to be true.

How can you have 700 employees and not get a machine to work without jamming? Wouldn't you also want to be able to demonstrate the ability to actually do the tests in the way that was being proposed (ie. running tests on a tiny drop of blood) before you hired 700 people and raised $1bn. Just insanity.
"At Conus we only use the smallest crapotainers, we have evolved to not taking any blood as we make up the results anyway.'
Her claim that she figured this complex field out at 19 to evolve her concept was something that could have been taken apart by any professional.
She should have been asked why there are no medical experts on her board of directors. But of course the the questions were likely already selected by Homes.
Sociopath.
I’d love to know who was interviewng her.
- What are your inventions exactly and why has this not been done before?
- Our belief is...
None of the questions are answered.
What's so funny to me is that you CAN run a glucose test on a single drop of blood. She could have manufactured these machines to test for pre-diabetes, as she mentions in this interview, and marketed the machines as early detection for preventing diabetes, and had the machines available in drugstores the same way we have blood pressure machines in drugstores. That would have been an incredible product and it would have been so marketable... she literally had all the components to do it. But she lied instead.
She said she could run hundreds of tests. Most people know about glucose monitors. Your comment is irrelevant.
@@Yuyayayu872 The Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz created his own finger prick company called Healthyr that is an actual realistic version of what Theranos was capable of doing - and his company is ethical and successful. My point is that she could have marketed the company based on what her machines were ACTUALLY capable of doing instead of lying about things it couldn’t do.
But her machine got it very badly wrong on a guy who sought an alternative test through his own doctor for pre-diabetic condition. His HBA1C was actually normal, so had he relied on the Theranos test, he could have been placed on medication which in turn could lead to his death. ☠️
Her process was not proven accurate in any consistent manner at that time.
Simple little hand held glucometers have been around for decades now, and very successfully.
Holmes is less interesting than that interviewer and the audience's willingness to believe in magical thinking and to completely suspend any intelligent thought about what they were drawn into. We want to be told there are painless solutions to the struggles in life and are willing to believe those who offer them.
Sounds like Musk
Holmes' shut-down company was purported to give immediate results while interacting with your doctor, yet the tests were taken in a Walgreen's, not with a doctor. Also, the Fortune interviewer got her Theranos results within 24 hours and only then could email with her doctor...no immediate on-the-spot interaction, as stated by Holmes. Also, traditional lab tests already detect diseases early. Holmes' played on heartstrings about "fundamentally not having to say good-by too soon", but that's what traditional testing already does. Holmes' desire to promote her sense of success overshadowed her really caring about people's health. For one year, she was in an engineering program at Stanford but never became an engineer nor a scientist nor was she medically-trained. Oversight and regulation fell through the cracks.
How else would they have the time to run through the backdoor to run tests on other companies' machines?
She literally says nothing of value or substance. Every interview I watch, it's impossible to figure out what she or her company does exactly other than marketing and storytelling
Props to fortune for leaving this up.
Don't give them ideas!
How is it possible that we all realized how crazy her answers were and yet the savviest investors and influential business magazine editors kept fueling her delusions?
Because they weren’t saavy investors. They got greedy and fell for the scam. I mean none of those “smart” people found it weird that there are no other medical investors and no doctors on the board?
It's called the fear of missing out a great opportunity
You're watching this with hindsight. People weren't calling her answers crazy years ago.
She's the classic definition of " Narcissism ". This is like doing a presentation on a book she only red the first two pages...
It's so weird how she always manages to jump from "we have made it possible" to "if we could make it possible" and back again. I just find it odd that she can do that without people just saying "is this just an impossible dream? Is it a would, a could, an is, a should, a have, a not, a what?! A what not?! Perhaps a maybe? Why are you wearing Steve Jobs's jumper?"🥚😳🧐

Ian Gibbons from Theranos committed suicide
As a real intelligent scientist. Ian Gibbons killed himself due to long term work place bullying and abuse, work place intimidation and work place humiliation, devaluing, threats and toxic work environment from Elizabeth Holmes.
I do not care about the investors. To them, It is just a bad investment and just money. But Elizabeth Holmes had destroyed a real scientist Ian Gibbons (biochemist).
Ian Gibbons Who approached the entire process rigorously like a real science with high standard.
Elizabeth Holmes has no education, no degree, no experience, NOTHING to offer but just talking shit.
If there is anything had actually been done, if anything actually been invented, it is done by Ian Gibbons (biochemist).
Elizabeth claimed all his work as her invention. It is like I say “I want to build a time machine” and someone else actually done all the work and had actually invented the time machine, can I claim that I invented time machine just because I publicly spoke that idea first? If that is the case, I said about the similar idea of doing blood test 20 years ago long before Elizabeth Holmes. I am the real inventor of everything then.
held a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Cambridge.[2] He spent 30 years working on diagnostic and therapeutic products at various technology companies including Biotrack Laboratories. At Biotrack, he worked with Channing Robertson, who later recommended him as the first experienced scientist hired by Theranos. Gibbons, Robertson and others invented and patented a mechanism at Biotrack to dilute and mix liquid samples, abilities which would become key in Theranos processes.
@si si That is so true I always think of Ian Gibbons, especially when Elizabeth talks about not having to “say goodbye to soon.” I have seen on the HBO documentary where his widow said theranos did not even contact her or offer condolences. They just asked for his top-secret paperwork back. Cold.
mtmcas Elizabeth is really just a liar, a con, a manipulator, they do not care if you are live or dead, people still have not got out of the “glory” imagination from her bullshit. Still thinking her words? All those are lies...
I wonder why RUclips did not label this interview 7 years ago as a false claims and missinformation?
I have such a hard time understanding how and why someone would start and develop this company all on the basis of lies. I just don’t get it. Misleading investors is just too much of a risk. And she just seems to genuinely believe in what she’s saying.
I don’t get it.
Sometimes liars even fool themselves.
she is a narc, she thought she is better than everyone else and if she has money she will build this technology. but when it did not work for a long time, that time instead of telling the truth she stuck with lies. instead of saying okay we wasted millions and it still isnt working, she decided to put lives of people at risk. all for her mental issues. she is also a sociopath.
I wonder if she believed until the very end that over time they would make the device work. She just kept asking for more time (just finished The Dropout serie).
I'm just surprised her scam lasted so long before falling apart
Am I sick? I hear her voice to help me sleep. It’s just a bunch of meaningless mumbo jumbo, but it makes me feel I’m at peace. 🌚
Best part is when the interviewer shows off her phony Theranos test results. Cholesterol lookin good because it’s incompletely inaccurate.
Her question after is a legit good question but Elizabeth doesnt answer her. “Why hasn’t anyone thought of this..” “how do you analyze so much from so little blood”
“How much blood are we talking about?”
“Uh A fEw DrOpS”
Me too, a true expert would have given a measure

A HUGE FACTOR to not diagnosing is doctors and hospitals who do not care, bias, and discriminate. Even the Center for Rare Diseases this year publicized the natl crisis of not diagnosing. The med estblishment needs to be enforced to fairly and timely diagnose. Many female heart attack and stroke victims are not only not diagnosed, but patient dumped or purposely libelled in med records. The common innacuracies in med records is disturbingly high. Many are very surprised if ever see the dr notes. ACCESS to med records is another issue absurdly complicated by struggles to get them, again by the out of control med establishment, who in GENERAL, REALLy do not care about us.
We’re most people really having an issue with getting stuck at a lab (or at home if receiving visiting nurses services) and then waiting 3-7 days for the results? How did she convince people that getting results in 1-2 days instead of 7 would be life changing?

No doctors on her board (of course), and I don't think she was ever profiled in a medical journal or doctor show.
