We saw this with Theranos. They lobbied really hard to stop doctors from being gatekeepers to blood tests.

What's the problem? Theranos committed fraud and their founder is in prison. Meanwhile, you can order blood tests. Early in the COVID pandemic I thought I had it at the very start. I got myself an antibody test and found that I didn't. Good data, and I didn't need to go wait in a doctor's office with a bunch of COVID patients.
