2 athletes have been provisionally suspended: Glory Onome and ECH silver medalist in 50km race walk Alina Tsviliy.

Alina's failed test was taken in less than a month after the ECH She was clean at the ECH.

The meds weren't prescribed by the team doctor so my guess is that she wanted to find allowed substitude for meldonium and failed to check the WADA list.

Spanish court authorises release of Operacion Puerto blood bags to Italian Olympic Committee

Let's see if the 569th attempt will actually get to something, but I doubt it  

 

It sounds more like the annual 'news' about Operacion Puerto until it's quite for another year.
