With much laughter I post this from CyclingNews: Fuentes guessed at how his medical practices would be thought of in the future, postulating, "Perhaps in 20 years they will give me the Nobel Prize; maybe they will build me a memorial. Or they will kill me."

The fact remains that a large number of Dutch cyclists died from the effects of EPO. After Doctors started handling the doping the numbers of deaths dropped dramatically.
What would you think the responsibility of Doctors would be? Do you think that they should turn away athletes and allow them to die from ignorance about drug use? Or that if they're looking for someone to prescribe drugs to them properly they're probably going to use them properly or improperly and it's better for a Doctor to handle it so that the athlete doesn't end up killing himself accidentally?

There was a great lab during one period, doing experimental, top- secret experimentation. Hush hush, and all that. Just a little too secret and where they were lacking in technical help, people died.
Omerta Pharmaceuticals. They coulda been great.
(I think the responsibility of doctors is to do no harm, and maintain patient confidentiality. Sugar plums and pixie dust.)

i agree, EPO and blood doping should be covered under health insurance.
poor joe papp couldn't afford the $30,000 a year fuentes charges and had to stop racing.

No worse than what's going on now. At least you're looking at things from the other side?

Something to ponder, there. --D-y
dumbass,
there isn't anything to ponder.
at the high end you can pay a doc the equivalent of a domestiques salary and you have some security of not testing positive or a bad side-effect (both would be bad for business).
at the low end riders are still procuring dope and using cavalierly and risking a positive test or adverse side effect (ie. what happened to joe papp).

I think that cyclists should continue to consult back-alley physicians to prescribe and monitor the cyclists' doping programs. One of the reasons that I think cyclists should dope is so I can hear all the weak sisters squeal when another athlete is "caught" doping.
