Chapter 26 - Our humanitarian cause

Each in their own private offices and connected by secure satellite link, the members of Eligo Rarus were discussing their latest acquisition. A new biotech company, GENT had developed a way to conduct a full human genetic test in a matter of minutes and provide a complete biological profile of a person, including any defects and susceptibility to diseases. The news hadn’t gone public as yet. When it did, it was going to cause a bombshell in the markets.

They had been VERY interested in GENT for some time now. In fact they had invested seed capital into it through one of their hidden companies in the startup phase. That had proved wise when the new technology had been announced in-house. It would give them a head start when the run on shares commenced. They were already, collectively, in a controlling position. While others would take their profit in the run-up, the men and women in this group stood firm. They had plenty of money; what they required was control, and they already had it.

The discussion at hand was how best to exploit that control. An interesting proposal was put forth. They’d never before looked into pathology labs as a worthy investment, because there was no money in them. But now, there was a tie-in between the new testing technology and the medicines and supplements controlled by their pharmaceuticals holdings. That tie-in was the pathology labs that were in the middle of the cycle: test, evaluate, prescribe.

Since there was no money in it anyway, it would also tie in with their humanitarian mission. If they controlled the pathology labs, they could use the results of the GENT genetics testing to determine what, besides the complaint that had brought the patient in to begin with, was wrong or could go wrong because of their DNA. A value-added service, if you will, one of them remarked.

Once they had hooked a person with all his genetic shortcomings and what ailments would befall him, they would be in a position to then sell the medicine and supplements (all of which they already owned) to him. That would be the biggest industry on earth, forget about energy, water, food or any of those. Every human being on earth would want to have the complete medical cycle in one convenient doctor visit.

Before the news about GENT broke, they needed to gain control of the pathology labs; and in this instance, they were after 100% of the industry.

Their financial business concluded, they reviewed the political pies they had a thumb in and learned with satisfaction that everything was going as planned.
