First bullet point in the list of sanctions in the Theranos press release you linked:
"Revocation of the laboratory’s CLIA certificate which, as dictated by the regulations, includes a prohibition on owners and operators of the lab from owning, operating or directing a lab for at least two years from the date of revocation" (emphasis mine)
- foota 10y agoWouldn't Theranos be the owner and operator of the lab?
- krisdol 10y agoCan't they work around this by renting the lab?
- refurb 10y agoIf they rent the lab, then someone else needs to own it, run it and get it certified. I'm sure the FDA would be OK with that.
- amdavidson 10y agoYour comment is a bit unclear, but the answer is the same. If they rent the lab out to someone else, they're still the owner. If they rent the lab from some third party owner, they're the operator. Either way they're violating the terms of the ban.
