Holmes's Partner Launches New Blood-Testing Company, Raising Ethical Concerns
A new blood-testing startup, launched by the partner of convicted fraudster Elizabeth Holmes, is seeking $50 million in funding. This raises ethical concerns due to its striking similarities to Holmes's infamous Theranos. The startup, founded by Billy Evans, who met Holmes during her trial, uses almost identical marketing language to Theranos, prompting questions about its legitimacy and business practices. "One fraudster attracts another," says Justin Moore, the creator of a podcast about dubious business decisions, highlighting the controversial nature of the venture. The similarities between the two companies have sparked debate on social media, with many questioning whether history is repeating itself. The situation underscores the importance of ethical considerations in the healthcare industry and the need for greater scrutiny of new ventures with questionable backgrounds.
