Episode description
This week we share some sick scandals from a time long ago and a more recent #SiliconScam that are worth throwing some shade at. The Dalkon Shield and Theranos scandals meet at the intersection of biotechnology and its relation to the invention of “life changing” medical devices. But not really. But they tried. We’re just here to donate our two cents on it though.
Be sure to follow our Twitter & Instagram accounts for hard evidence, discussions, and to see visuals pertaining to each episode, @itsasickness_ Cheers!
Topics covered:
- Elizabeth Holmes' Theranos scandal
