I didn't realize that Walgreens is already doing Theranos tests.

What tests do they perform? Is this something that we should be doing yearly?

[update] fixed typo

Walgreens and Walmart are two different companies, despite the similarity of their names.

Walgreens had $76b in revenues last year and was founded in 1901. Walmart wasn't founded until 1962, but had $485b in revenue.

Fixed the typo. I know the difference. I walk by Walgreens daily, but never shop there.

I was curious too so I took a look at their website. It looks like they list all their tests and the price for them. This seems rather transparent of them. Not sure if Walgreens does all of these.
