Not quite - Walgreens believes that the CMS punishment, which is expected in the next two weeks, will be sufficiently harsh enough that it will win a case against Theranos. If they lost the case, they could have potentially been on the hook for hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in damages (i.e. so much money that even with the incredibly bad press of not severing the deal sooner, it still made more sense to keep the deal until things got to where they are now). https://twitter.com/joshdickson40/status/742154076851408898 https://twitter.com/joshdickson40/status/742154076851408898
