- Synopsis
- In March 2020, as COVID-19 spreads rapidly across the U.S., Everlywell founder Julia Cheek considers how to respond as a small start-up specializing in at-home lab testing. After making dramatic budget cuts, she decides to pivot the organization to address the country's testing shortage. But after a hectic few weeks building capacity at her partner labs to 30,000 COVID daily tests, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) releases a statement warning the public that it has not granted approval for at-home tests. Cheek must decide whether to return to her core business or persist in focusing her nascent organization on COVID-19 tests, an opportunity whose commercial merit is unclear.
