That was for a different idea. A wearable device that could diagnose and treat that would be impossible because of the physical limitations of .
The whole Theranos grift was something else. A stand-alone diagnostic machine.
Of course the skeptics will say it can’t be done. They’ve invested so much into bulky lab spaces and will say anything to try and keep a disruptor like us out of the picture. Their antiquated testing equipment is so bulky because they haven’t needed to innovate. We are expanding on technology that already exists. Test just a drop of blood like checking your blood sugar. They have so much to lose if we can take their big labs and put it into a clinic, or even into homes. Places that have poor access to healthcare could now have it. We could even put it into a helicopter. Imagine soldiers in the field getting tested before they even get to the hospital. It could save lives. By the way have you met General Mattis, former Chief of the Joint Forces? He’s on our board.
Anyway where was I. Oh right, we are currently running successful tests in Walgreens centres as part of our strategic partnership with them and hope to bring that program nationwide. If you’re still skeptical here’s some documentation from some leading pharmaceutical companies about our testing abilities…
It was a good grift.
