Russia's anti-doping agency RUSADA will undertake a broad programme to monitor athletes' biological components once a full hiatus in testing linked to coronavirus containment measures across the country ends, its director said on Tuesday.
Moscow and several other regions have declared lockdowns to stem the spread of the new coronavirus, which has so far infected 21,102 people across Russia.Yuri Ganus, the head of RUSADA, announced last month that the agency was temporarily halting testing, a measure currently in place until the end of the month.
He stressed that the agency would take the hiatus into account in future testing and focus on Athlete Biological Passports designed to monitor different biological components that can reveal the effects of doping over time. Ganus could not give an exact date for the resumption of testing, saying it would coincide with the lifting of the restrictions announced by the Russian government to curb contagion.
