Montreal, 29 May 2018
Dear Colleagues,
Article 14.5 of the World Anti-Doping Code (Code) stipulates that the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) shall act as a central clearinghouse for Doping Control Testing data and results. Accordingly, on an annual basis, the Agency publishes statistical reports, which consolidate data that have been reported by WADA-accredited laboratories via the Agency’s Anti-Doping Administration and Management System (ADAMS).
Today, we are pleased to provide WADA’s 2017 Testing Figures Report via Sharefile, which is broken down into the following four sub-reports. They represent analyses conducted by the WADA-accredited laboratories in 2017, in- and out-of-competition, for urine, blood and the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP).
The sub-reports are:
- Laboratory report
- Sport report
- Testing Authority report
- ABP (blood analysis)
WADA is providing you, Anti-Doping Organizations (ADOs), with these reports in advance of their public distribution, inviting you to review your respective testing data and verify the data via ADAMS. We would ask you to please send any comments to statistics@wada-ama.org, by Friday 8 June 2018.
In order to facilitate this process, the Agency would encourage you to refer to the Reporting Guide to Monitor Testing, which will guide you in compiling and verifying your respective results in ADAMS, including the Adverse Analytical Findings (AAFs) and Atypical Findings (ATFs) related to samples from your testing programs.
We thank you for your cooperation and remain available to respond to any questions that you may have in this regard.
Best regards,
World Anti-Doping Agency |
