Elizabeth Holmes of Theranos may have been a fraud, but this is pretty much exactly what she was working on. She said she had this technology. Her competition said she was a fraud. She’s in jail. The competition is looking at big profits. Hmmmmm.

Great idea... Now people can just skip all the nonsense and go directly to ‘assisted’ suicide.

How much for a test?

>> This means there was a 61.6% chance that someone with a positive Galleri test actually had cancer. The false positive rate was “very low” at about 0.4%, according to the researchers. <<

Isn’t that a 38.4% false positive rate?

I think it’s 0.4% or 0.004.

She was a fraud. She was using standard blood test machines and pretending it was a one blood drop wonder machine. That fraud plus her Steve Jobs turtleneck imitation and reeling in connected idiots in government such as Mattis lead people to plow money into her company.

She was a fraud. My ex is in the medical lab business and met her when she gave a presentation. Said she knew instantly she was a fraud because every question was met with “that’s confidential”, “that’s proprietary “, and some variation or trust me combined with look how many important people believe me.

Get tested for no symptoms. Didn't we just go through variants of "Covid-19" without symptoms?

There have been advertisements for various sorts of "life screenings" coming through the snail mail for a number of years. Seemed like "funnels" to send clients into various net billable services.

Get tested! Translation: spend money, with the GRAIL Inc investors' hopes of earning a lot more money.

Pass.

she IS a fraud ... said all of her tests could be done with a finger-prick drop of blood, which was impossible ... never got her machine to work, many tests were fraudulent and put peoples’ lives at risks, and the “legitimate” tests had been sent out to legitimate labs but said to come from her toaster-sized machine ...

she and her bud, Sunny, lied about all of this and persecuted those who tried to expose all of that with thugs, lawyers, and threats to their families ... both her and Sunny are sociopaths ...

media fell in love with her because they needed a successful female entrepreneur, and she stacked her board with a bunch of medical-ignorant horny old has-been fools like Kissinger, Schulz and mad-dog Mattis ...

billions were invested and lost in her fraudulent company ...

Oh, wait, I get it: The denominator isn’t the number of positive results, but rather the total number of results.

Ivermectin, Fenbenzaloe, and DMSO is all that works!!!

BREAKING: Chemotherapy Reactivates Dormant Cancer Cells — Triggers Metastasis

https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/breaking-chemotherapy-reactivates

New landmark study reveals that standard cancer treatment can backfire — with devastating consequences.
Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

Chemotherapy is supposed to kill cancer — not bring it back. But a groundbreaking Cancer Cell study by He et al has revealed that common cancer drugs like doxorubicin and cisplatin can reawaken dormant tumor cells, triggering deadly metastatic relapses — especially in the lungs.

These “sleeping” cancer cells, known as disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), can lie hidden for years before reactivating. This study is the first to directly prove that chemotherapy itself can wake them up.

NEW STUDY – Ivermectin Shows Striking Anticancer Potential and Remarkable Safety

Largest review to date of ivermectin use in cancer patients finds no safety concerns, promising anecdotal reports, and strong preclinical evidence of tumor suppression.

Seems that way doesn’t it? Also seems like the results left some wiggle room though it may just be the reporting is unclear.

I did not learn how they were able to verify that as true. Maybe they are suggesting it as a screen that is then followed up by more traditional investigation and in those cases only 0.4% of them have detected cancer that was nor proven there by further conventional examination?

I’m pretty sure i don’t want to go to war on a test that “detects cancer that is not there”. I have enough that I can’t do anything about on my mind as it is.

--- "Isn't that a 38.4% false positive rate? Yes."

From the "company promotion" article presented as if news:

"Out of the more than 23,000 people sampled, the Galleri test detected a cancer signal in 216 of them, 133 of whom were confirmed to have the disease."

Divide "confirmed" by "people sampled," and one finds about a 0.6 percent detection rate.

Divide "confirmed" by "a cancer signal," and one that "61 percent."

But consider, the "frame" is not the smaller, but the larger "more than 23,000 people sampled."

Smells like marketing.

Other small note about the article:

"...the US Preventive Services Task Force...."

Translation: sixteen people. Interestingly, their website is privacy protected by a company in the UK -- in Middlesex.

Given that about one percent of the population dies every year, a 0.6 percent detection rate seems nothing out of the ordinary, excepting that over 23,000 tests -- money -- were used / sold to get to their results. Kaching.

This radio show doctor I listen to here in the Seattle market has an organization called Longevity Medical Clinic. I gave them a try, and they did a VERY comprehensive panel of blood tests showing some interesting results. Nothing serious just very insightful as these were not blood tests normally done by mainline doctors.

Anyway, I was listening to his show this last weekend and they were touting this Galleri test and said it was available to the members of their clinic. He said it was also available to people that were not members of their clinic but there were some hoops you had to jump through to get this test through them. I don’t remember what those hoops were though.

I can do that for you right now:

Question: What color is your blood?

If the color is:
1) Red - 39% chance of developing cancer
2) Dark brown or black - you are already dead.
