All the investors, and all the journalists had a simple option that none of them appear to have taken: have your own blood tests done by Theranos.

Google Ventures said that when they were looking at Theranos as an investment, they sent an employee to have the test, then were puzzled why a blood draw was required, and said that was suspicious enough not to invest.
