Which all of course still raises the question: how come athletes seem to get allergic/asthmatic right before big moments/Grand Tours/etc?

Because it's obviously nearly impossible to prove that a person has or doesn't have an allergy, it's the perfect way to get away with it.

 

And on top of that, let's not forget that ALL people that don't share their medical records with the whole World are automatically TUE abusers, period.

Quite a good piece this, mostly about Wiggins and his TUEs and Team Sky not being as transparent as they're always preaching to be.

Of course it is...

I agree that all TUE's, bans and all other drungs-related stuff should be public. When you become an elite athlete your privacy is gone anyway.

In fourth part we can see 4 players of Canadian football women's team which used the same dose of salbutamol during the same period in one year since January 2008 to January 2009. Salbutamol used people with asthma. WADA allowed salbutamol but only if you used small dose. But they used TUEs because they used doses more than allowed. They all was in the team at the 2008 Olympics. This is strange coincidences.

For me, all the speculations going on, shows why they shouldn't be public
