"Theranos operated under a culture of secrecy and fear." Secrets make us sick.
Another case where capitalism overthrows science and critical thinking.
Unbelievable how many
Don't get me wrong, Elizabeth Holmes deserves the blame. She is guilty, not only of crimes punishable by prison time, but also of being a deceptive, manipulative, scarily harmful saleswoman who can never be trusted again. She does not appear to show remorse for any of her behavior, nor does she accept any blame for her wrongdoing. The magnitude of her denial is bewildering.

Also I'm not a big nonfiction reader as I struggle to keep focused especially around the midway point but one's written by journalists like this one & Jon Ronson's The Psychopath Test, I've throughly enjoyed mostly due to their writing style. They feel as if they're written by common folk for common folk in which they always explain enough but give ways for the reader to search up more if needed/wanted.
