WADA shuts down Bloem lab

[Underachiever]

Mmmmm the plot thickens ...

 

"The only Wada-recognised facility in Africa, the Bloemfontein Laboratory, became the latest to be ordered to cease analysis of athletes’ blood and urine samples after being caught reporting false positives or negatives."

 

"Like those in Beijing and Lisbon, the Bloemfontein lab failed at least one of several regular audits by Wada, which assesses the accuracy of labs’ analysis by secretly sending them samples it already knows to be positive or negative."

Ha, ha, ha ha

I would actually like for them to publish a list of riders tested after each event/weekly basis and then their results once they are available ... total transparency is needed for us to even think of trusting the system.

 

Also a list of TUE's issued

 

 

And they must not say Oh but people will jump to conclusions.. they lost the right to privacy the day they looked the other way with athletes of all sports

Not recently updated though. But check the number of sporting codes.

Seriously?  What else is there to do in Bloem, except take drugs?

[Patchelicious]

I think a few athletes are pooping in their pants/speedos/chamois right about now.

SAIDS don't run the lab. They use it if it is WADA accredited. Now it isn't and they are using another one in Doha

Change your hub name to bolderonebike...there's only a single-letter difference.

My understanding is the that methamphetamine can improve cycling performance by eliminating the weight of your teeth?
