MOSCOW: 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.
Speaking in an online news conference on Tuesday, Ganus said the agency could not guarantee that athletes would not turn to performance-enhancing substances in the absence of testing. "Our control will not be weakened," he said."We will come out with a broad retrospective analysis programme... We have a clear understanding of what we will focus on."Other countries, including Canada, have also temporarily put testing programmes on hold during the coronavirus pandemic.
RUSADA was suspended in 2015 after the World Anti-Doping Agency found evidence of mass doping in Russian athletics.
