to me this is like blood testing at home, I am surprised this is still not a thing

I took a sample of my own blood for a mail-order blood test recently and it was stupidly difficult. One reason Theranos was so exciting that people lost their minds over it was basically that it made at-home blood samples feasible for the regular population.
I feel that the worst part about the Theranos disaster is that big tech seems a little scared of doing sensitive medical stuff again.
