A lot of professional athletes got steroids and other doping products from Biogenesis, a Miami anti-aging clinic. The famous baseball stars Alex Rodriquez, Melky Cabrera and Bartolo Colon also belonged to persons that got anabolic steroids at this clinic.
What is unusual here? - Nothing. Anabolic steroids and other related drugs are widely used in baseball and in other sports. Sportspersons get these preparations at pharmacies, clinics, etc. A lot of anti-ageing clinics, drug manufacturers and other related establishments sell steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs illegally. Biogenesis is not the only clinic that is involved in illegal operations linked with anabolic steroids and other prescription preparations. Sportspersons find different methods to acquire steroids and other related products and apply them. However anti-doping officers try to eradicate doping from sports, their efforts are not successful.
Do you consider that anti-doping agencies don’t work enough well? Do you believe that they should establish more sophisticated drug testing policies? Do you consider that they don’t do their job appropriately?
It is needed to realize that no any drug testing program is able to eradicate doping from sports completely. Athletes find several ways to avoid detection. Doping is a part of sports. It exists from ancient time. Even ancient Greeks and Romans had several methods to enhance their performance to win. Will athletes discontinue administering steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs now?
Some sportspersons purchase undetectable medicines and take them. Moreover, they hire experts that supply them with recommendations on application of anabolic steroids and/or other performance-enhancing drugs. So, some athletes have unfair advantage over others. Anti-doping officials can’t change the situation. They are not able to make sports “clean”. What is it needed to do under such circumstances? It is probably necessary to legalize doping in professional sports. Thus, anyone will be allowed to apply whatever he/she wants. As a result, no any athlete will have unfair advantage over another.
But since anabolic steroids and other related drugs are banned in sports, athletes try to find methods to obtain and apply these medications, avoiding detection. When it becomes evident that certain athletes dope, scandals appear.
