A THERANOS UPDATE, COURTESY OF 60 MINUTES?

Regular readers here know that I'm fascinated with the story of Elizabeth Holmes and her Silicon Valley start-up, Theranos. But for those unfamiliar with the story, a brief review is in order. Holmes was once the darling of the early morning television talk-show circuit. Her start-up, Theranos, was worth billions, and its board once boasted the presence of names well-known: George Schultz, Riley Bechtel, even Henry Kissinger and General Mattis and former Senator Sam Nunn and former Secretary of Defense William Perry were on her board. The military-industrial complex, in other words, was very interested in Theranos and Ms. Holmes' idea.

What was the idea? Basically, that testing for diseases could be revolutionized. By taking a small drop of blood, Ms. Holmes wanted to build a small, table-top computerized testing apparatus that would, from that small drop of blood, test for all sorts of diseases, and deliver its results to the patient, in their home. No need to draw lots of blood in a syringe, and ship it off to a laboratory, and wait for test results. Blood panels could be done from home, cheaply.

(For my articles and blogs about Holmes, Theranos, and its technology, see

Now, if you bothered to read and consider the above-linked blogs, it will be apparent that not only was Ms. Holmes on to something, but the possibility also emerges that someone, somewhere, wanted her patents, and did not want her to reap any benefit from them.

Well, if the following short video from CBS's Sixty Minutes is any indicator, that someone not only wants to plant biosensors in soldiers' and sailors' bodies, but it also wants to draw their blood, and put it into a small table top machine for analysis... shades of Ms. Holmes' and Theranos' original claims, and that someone, in this case, appears to be the US Navy:

I don't know about you, but to me, it looks like we're looking at some version of Ms. Holmes' table-top blood analysis machine in that video; at the minimum, the concepts are similar.

And that means, at least from this commentator's perspective, that there is something very fishy about not just Ms. Holmes or the Theranos story, but equally, about the government's case against her. It wouldn't be the first time it has stolen an idea and a technology, then accused its inventor of all sorts of mischief in order to cloak its own culpability. Whether or not Ms. Holmes was up to mischief remains to be seen (and I rather suspect there was at least some mischief), but the parallels here are too hard to ignore, and make me suspect there's much more mischief involved here, and it's not coming from Ms. Holmes or Theranos.

And oh, by the way, it's "just in time" for the covid planscamdemic, isn't that interesting? What a coincidence!

See you on the flip side...

    That last line was chilling. About how we will be inoculated from all viruses. Go read War of the Worlds and let me know how that works out.



  2. Laura on August 29, 2021 at 12:34 am

    Well if the goal is to analyze blood to improve health, a large comprehensive database of individuals and their respective bio data and blood changes over time would be needed.

    Heads up. Just read ccp sending 350 health care workers 90% docs as replacement workers for all the aussie hcw’s currently quarantined or laid off unjabbed. Truckies vowed to shut down oz last wk. Cops shot protesters in backs with rubber bullets last wkend. Any bets how ozzies will go this wkend?



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 10:31 pm

      How many days to blue helmeted ccp troops on ground in oz? Think they will deploy their version of active denial like they did against indian troops?



  4. Sandygirl on August 27, 2021 at 3:35 pm

    “Killer viruses we haven’t seen or even imagined” kind of like this new bat virus? And what a coincidence that this new “spike protein can save the whole world.”



    • Richard on August 28, 2021 at 10:07 pm

      As you mentioned, . . . “Killer viruses we haven’t seen or even imagined.” . . . .

      One wonders about what’s become of those 28 unknowns out of 33 microbes two expeditions to that Tibetan Glacier in 1992 and again in 2015 picked out. There still hasn’t been much said about those ice core samples amidst this talk about lab leaks, gain-of-you-know-what tweaks, and why two expeditions to the same place for microbes in an ice core sampling. In one’s opinion, if ever there were a place and source for that “haven’t seen or even imagined” stuff, those 28 unknowns seem a tempting stack of trial and error for tweaking, gaining functions, and changing codes of known microbes.

      Convenient that those samples are in the backyard of the mainland of the Party of the east by going west and now, probably, under military / civilian fusion control of the Party.



  5. ken wood on August 27, 2021 at 2:44 pm

    Just wondering what the “Spike protein” would look like in Theranos device.
    Surely, the pandemisists (creators of the pandemic) wouldn’t sabotage someone else’s work.



  6. zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:17 pm

    Nice dig and nice archive Doc.

    Found this earlier today and thought of this post and the comprehensive histories we have all been working from. They are far more pooched and more easily pooched than we can so far grock. Humbling and heartening in terms of “wow, how wrong was I and wow how much less wrong am I now?”

      Great link you provided! Wow, lots of data and sins of omission.



  7. Loxie Lou Davie on August 27, 2021 at 10:16 am

    Off topic here: Anyone ever heard of the “12 Vile Vortices”??? It seems whoever terraformed this planet put 12 equally spaced ‘dead zones’ around the surface which seem to have a brake-like effect on our rotation?! Of course the most famous one is The Bermuda Triangle!!

    Back in 1942 the Nazis sent an expedition to the one in Algeria which ended in a huge explosion!! Then not too many years ago; a man’s son was killed by the family dog when the two of them were exploring the same ‘dead zone’!!

    So the Father organized an expedition to figure out why the dog had gone crazy. Sad to say, this expedition ALSO ended in a huge explosion…..just like what happened in 1942??? The History Channel 2 put out a program about this. Apparently, Ivan Sanderson first wrote about these.

    What I wonder about is at what point in the history of Earth was our Moon dragged into it’s orbit???
    Or….was it “parked” there?!!! 😉



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 1:00 pm

      Um, where are all of these vortices?
      Is one near Chicago? CERN?



      • Loxie Lou Davie on August 29, 2021 at 5:30 pm

        ZDB……there is a map showing them evenly spaced over the globe, but I’d have to watch the program again. It was History Channel 2 program from late 90’s, I think.

        The sad part is that this Prof’s son was killed by the family dog when he left the vehicle to check out something….the phone recorded it all. That sent him on a “mission” to figure out what happened that would make the dog go crazy. The scientific team that was in Algeria with the Prof all died in the final explosion…..so sad!! The video crew had left for the night & the explosion was accidently filmed by a camera they forgot to turn off.

        That the same thing happened to the Nazi team was eerie!! I would say there is much we do not know about this planet!! They think that the one in the Pacific Ocean was blasted away during one of the bombs exploded there???

    Does Inslaw ring a bell this is just an old capitalist game of making billions the old fashion way of stealing ideas and inventions from the true creators.



  9. Marco Fredriks on August 26, 2021 at 5:21 pm

    My opinion is that for each and every new technology which comes out of the military domain there is a shill person to bring it in the public domain. Also Tesla and Edison, but in our times see Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Hewlett and Packard, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates etc etc. As long as they keep themselves on the agenda and don’t overstep any agreed border they are fine and rich. It looks like Ms Holmes overstepped the border and is crushed.



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:56 pm

      Some of those shills are used for multiple slightly fraudulent techs.
      Like Musk pushing Neuralink, Boring Company, Tesla and what else?

      Been to hardware stores lately? More than half of all lawncare machines now are electric. More than half of them are cordless. This green tech save the world approach is even being applied to power tools.

      Tried to buy a $70 grinder at Ace last week. Basic Milwaukee Electric Tool 6130-33. Sold hundreds of them in previous career in lumber/millwork/hardware. Ace only offered the cordless version of the 6130. This is the most basic tool for metal and masonry work. Ace wanted $130 for the tool, $150 for the battery and $120 for the charger. I bought the basic corded unit at Rural King for $69.

      Ironic part:
      Work with a friend in small engine repair. Has me picking up 20 junked machines every 2 weeks from 2 hardware stores who do their own repairs. Last week we started seeing junked cordless mowers. Most people get 5 to 15 years out of gas mowers. Cordless are lasting 1 to 2 years. I tried cordless mowers 10 years ago. Batteries need replacing too often to be economical compared to petrol. Switched to corded mowers. Electric motors burned up too soon to be economical. Even when we kept the cord length down to 50′. So I’m ahead of the curve figuring out misapplication of tech on electrics in the small machine marketplace by about 10 years.

      What we are about to witness is the rest of the population figuring out for themselves what a rip off battery powered tools and machines are before they switch back to corded electric and petrol based systems (if petrol markets have not been subverted). Personal experience taught me and a few other friends (mostly electricians, plumbers, carpenters, repairmen and store owners) that electrics only replace gas powered when fuel prices are above $15/gal. At that point, work becomes prohibitively expensive anyway so it doesn’t much matter. Further research showed me that even if batteries were cheaper and better and even if electric motors did not burn up with long extension cords, there are not enough materials in and on this planet to produce enough batteries to replace petrol based cars and machines in one small state in the US.

      So look for a green cordless tool junk yard surge in the next couple years in America. And get all the repairs and maintenance done now to keep that 20 year old machine (gas powered mowers and basic corded electric tools) in great shape.

      And look out for what other loads of fraud Musk, Gates, Zuckschmuck et al are selling us now.

    60 Minutes is the “premier propatainment patch”
    for any “globalized-agreed-upon-narratives”.
    If the “Theranos” official narrative is beginning to unravel;
    send in the propatainment cavalry: 60 Minutes, for an updated patch.

    Reminds me of “Cold Fusion”.
    Same Breakaway Civilization monkey wrench of true science, getting in the way of the faux science money machine. Like Tesla bringing in a new energy source, that threatened the J.P Morgan Banking-petroleum energy-military-industrial-media entertainment-complex.
    That can’t be allowed.
    Tesla’s Energy, The Cold Fusion, and The Theranos Table-Top blood analysis machine are putting the public good before the privately owned and exploitive authoritarian closed systems’ machines running the world political economies.

    And then covid comes knocking, right-as-scheduled, on the medical Stassi globalized governance door. As FDR said, there are no geo-political surprises in terms of major league consequences. No Cold Fusions, no free tesla energies, no Theranos blood kits, no real science before its scheduled monopolized patented appearance.



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:36 pm

      Who was that Canadian billionaire pharma couple that got murdered in their home shortly before cv1984 started? They had just retooled factories and ramped up production for third world countries to produce vast cheap amounts of an off patent useful drug? Think it was HCQ. Or Ivermectin?



  11. Kevin Ryan on August 26, 2021 at 11:05 am

    Very curious. This device can recognize viruses we haven’t imagined? So if we had a Theranos blood analyzer, we could basically analyze all the viruses in our blood, antibodies, toxic chemicals and elements, and presumably it would be able to identify all the normal elements within our blood in order to be able to perform its basic friend-or-foe determination to be able to warn us about what ain’t right. Which means the Theranos device could be used to monitor the toxins we consume from water, air, and food, and in the vaccines themselves, and other pharmaceuticals. And we could monitor what is happening to our blood over time from exposure to say, hmmmm, 5G, among other things. That is not a device that 5G pushers, Big Pharma, Big Food, Monsanto, and their servants in government want in the hands of the people. Imagine what this would expose in 6 months.



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:32 pm

      Interesting perspective if she was not fraudulent.

      Blood center work a couple years back. Toward the end of my career there, manufacturers came out with a new machine to measure iron levels in blood. Before donating, donors are required to demonstrate adequate iron levels for the safety of the donors and the recipients. Anemic blood is not very useful.

      Previous machine sent light through a drop of blood and through spectrum analysis, signaled marginally accurate measure of iron. Company’s name was Hemocue. We all fondly called it Hemoguess. Just the same this was a better measure than the old system used when I started. That system required we place a drop of blood into jar of copper sulfate. If the drop floats, too anemic. If it sinks, donate.

      Back in 2017, a new company came along with a fancier version of hemoguess. Instead of jabbing fingers to take a drop of blood to place in the hemoguess, we placed the donor’s finger in a small clamp that shined a light through their finger and flashed up the appropriate number. FDA had us trial this system a few months. Seems that the other regions of the country all gave it the greenlight. Our region included Chicago and hence apprarently more black donors. Which really wrecked the new system. A simple variable of skin color was beyond this new system’s ability to reconcile with recognizing blood iron levels.

    Interesting how she had all those ex government and ex-military officials on her board.



  13. HerrSchwab on August 26, 2021 at 10:23 am

    Holmes should not be given to much knowelegde and know how because one of the first very early on
    and noone listened , to discover she was a fraud was the electronics community by her many weird claims regarding how electronics work and how standard physics operate, just after, the second group to find out she was a fraud was the biotech investors traders then the whole hoopla rolled out to the generic public.



    • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:21 pm

      How did she get that far with that obvious a fraud is the question, then.



      • John Cawley on August 27, 2021 at 12:51 pm

        Let’s say she was NOT fraudulent, but pushed out on the stage and propped up by a strong cohort from the military industrial intelligence club who either had a streak of personal greed, or were from a faction that had a reason to green-light this.
        Then, oops, in the 3-dimensional (or more) chess game, bigger powers realized that 2nd-order or 3rd-order effects from this technology getting out would be detrimental to their cause.
        The modern technique for getting investors and other interested parties to look away in disgust is to paint it as a fraud. Few folks, even those with technical chops, would be able to counter that story after it is inserted into the media wind storm.



        • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 3:12 pm

          Are we seeing something similar in the redpilling of ferocious Blue-anons happening at the moment?



      • HerrSchwab on August 27, 2021 at 2:23 pm

        She managed to fraud the top elite oligarchs, (checkout the investor list)
        it was embarrassing for them (old men) to get fraud’ed by a nippy red lipped
        young woman.

    “and protect you from viruses you can’t even image”? Where are these coming from, mutant strands or created ones? Who gets the technology? Those judged worthy and essential? Those not selected who come in contact are finally rid of and the depopulation program progresses.

    • Ken on August 26, 2021 at 10:16 am

      It’s a mind trap. Don’t believe the hype. Money is not real that’s why they can spend billions on this psy-op. The tyranny is real. The depopulation is real. The weapon is chemical warfare via injections. At least that is my take on it.



      • zendogbreath on August 27, 2021 at 12:20 pm

        Add chemical warfare by every other means possible too please.
        Consider that masks and pcr test swabs were found to have graphene oxide contamination before being rejected from China more than once. Vax have been found full of GO. Wonder how much GO has been chemtrailed?

    Rather reminds of Star Trek Next Generation (STNG)’s concept of the Borg collective. Perhaps even more so of the Deus Ex computer game of 2000 and beyond—worth looking up, as the themes are rather poignant: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deus_Ex
