Doping controversy

I don't think this is article is the appropriate venue to debate if what she/other Russian athletes do should be considered unacceptable PED usage as compared to drugs that athletes of other nationalities take. Maybe a better place to include that would be Doping in sport.PGWG (talk) 15:58, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

2016 olympics controversy

I recommend to add some sentences about the fact that the behavior of Yefimova's competition was critized in the press too (Washington Post, AP). One reason: Yefimova's doping history is by far less serious than that of Jessica Hardy (DHEA instead of Clenbuterol, you can buy DHEA in any doses even at Amazon.com). I recommend to add something like this:

The treatment of Yefimova by others including Lilly King was critized in the press too^[1]^[2]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lorenzondo (talk • contribs) 11:43, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
