Calling Drs. Waters and Zulu
What say ye about the positive Landis test? Likely False Positive? Is it an indicator of use of something else that might be more helpful in a stage race? Can one's natural levels vary enough after a monumental effort such as strage 17 to create a naturally but unusually high test result?
Help us poor lawyers and others out here a little, will ya?

i don't know physiological levels. I don't know the threshold of the test. I don't know its sensitivity/specificity. I don't know it's reproduceability.
I do know that your testosterone can be elevated by just watching your favorite team win. To what degree, I'm not sure. Point is that coming back in the tour, and winning the stage, could by itself elevate your testosterone. |
