- After Fyre Festival 2.0, we now have Theranos 2.0: Haemanthus. They'll start with pets. Fewer regulations.
- Elizabeth Holmes is in prison for defrauding investors through her blood-testing company, Theranos. Her partner, Billy Evans, is now trying to raise money for a company that describes itself as “the future of diagnostics.” nyti.ms/3FbtZm9
