Holmes Background:
Holmes, the daughter of a U.S. government aid worker and a congressional committee staffer, grew up in Washington, D.C., and Houston, Texas, and spent time in China during high school. While there she started a business selling computer software to universities in Asia. After Holmes returned to the U.S., she pursued a degree in electrical and chemical engineering at Stanford University.
During a summer break from her studies at Stanford, Holmes took a job at the Genome Institute of Singapore to work on a computer chip designed to detect the presence of the SARS virus in the body. She then became interested in developing more-efficient medical devices that could improve upon traditional diagnostic testing and therapeutic assessment. Upon her return to Stanford, Holmes patented a device that attached to a person’s body and measured the effectiveness of a given medication by comparing parameters of chemical markers produced by a diseased region with those of the therapeutic agent.

The Theranos board ALWAYS stood out as extremely suspicious. The company's vision (failed) was to make blood testing ubiquitous – machines in every home. At the time, I wondered if they were trying to take some sort of DNA inventory along the lines of Google's "Index the World's Information."
Interesting that SARS is being used now to do mass, global blood/data collection. I saw a story about travelers needing to have a covid passport based on blood tests.
Holmes was connected to DC, Houston, China, universities, Stanford, SARS, and blood testing. And had a board FILLED with heads of state and military.
