From what i have heard, from several credible sources, someone on the us women's team tested positive. As of now only the persons family, roommate, and usa swimming know, but im sure it will begin to leak out. Nothing matters though until we get results of the B test.. which could be a few days or even weeks. Not sure when the test was taken, but probably trials. I will try to post more information when I get it, but if anyone could confirm or post what they know, im sure it would be appreciated

She was cleared, I made the same mistake however in talking about Bernad Lagat failing the initial test but the "B" sample coming back clean:

As for testing for EVERYTHING...you missed the point entirely...there was not a test for the clear and the cream because it was "created" and the only reason they found it was an at the time anonymous person sent a syringe with a sample of it. I 100% guarantee that there are drugs being used out there right now that no test can detect...that is why baseline testing year around ala the Garmin-Chiplote team is using is the only answer at the moment.
Lindsay...go back in the thread and click on the link about the recent under cover investigation by a German reporter posing as an American swim coach in China getting offered these treatments for $24k.
My mistake - Marion's B sample was negative.
If you are 100% sure - why don't you anonymously notify the appropriate agencies who and what?
One change in cycling's practice now is that they are allowed to target suspected users. Ricco was a targeted user - and he was of course caught with a brand new EPO variant.
