Original Title: Elizabeth Holmes’s Partner Has a New Blood-Testing Start-Up
Billy Evans has two children with the Theranos founder, who is in prison for fraud. He’s now trying to raise money for a testing company that promises “human health optimization.”

The marketing documents provided with the photo say there is “no regulatory oversight — U.S.D.A. confirmed in writing.” It’s not clear what the company means by that. A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Seth W. Christensen, said he was not able to confirm whether the agency had corresponded with Haemanthus. “U.S.D.A. does regulate vet diagnostics,” including blood testing, Mr. Christensen said.
Ah, yes, medicine. A field without regulations. Hope they have some non-scammers in the family that can take care of the kids.

Okay but there's is a rather large chance there will be no regulations by end of 2025 once RFK has his fun, so they're just ahead of their time
yeah it's going to be the same scam only this time without those pesky regulators checking to see if it actually works and spooking the investors
I'm reaching for a big stick whenever "human" and "optimization" show up in the same sales pitch.
