One of the most important problems, with which the
Olympic Games (and international sport in the general)
is doping, the performances or the improvement of drugs.
In the beginning of the 20e century, much Olympic sporters
drugs their performances use began. For instance, the
winner of the marathon on the Games 1904, Thomas J.
Hicks, got strychnine and brandy through its coach,
even during the race. Since these methods became more
extreme, gradually the understanding gegroeid that this
not longer an affair of the health through means of
sport. In the middle of the years 1960, the sport federations
a ban on doping, and the IOC followed in 1967.
The first and until now closed simply Olympic death
causes through doping took place in 1960. On the bicycle
way race in Rome the Danish Knud Enemark Jensen fell
from its bicycle and later on passed away. A lijkschouwer
the investigation appeared that he was under influence
of amfetaminen.
The first Olympic athlete positively to test for use
of doping became Hans-Gunnar Liljenwall, a Swedish pentathlete
on the Olympic summer game 1968, that lost be bronze
medal for alcohol use. Seventy-three athletes followed
him in the coming 38 year, single medal winners under
them. The most acquaintance doping in connection with
deprivation was that of the Canadian sprinter Am Johnson,
that won the 100m by the Olympic Games in Seoul 1988,
but positive tests for stanozolol.
Despite the testing, many athletes remain use without
doping catches. In 1990, became the documents appeared
that pale many East-German feminine athletes was unconscious
administered anabole steroïden and other drugs
through their coach and trainers as a government administration.
In the slat years 1990, has the IOC initiative in a
lake organized fight against doping, that leads till
the foundation of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADED)
in 1999. The recent Olympic summer game 2000 and 2002
Olympic winter game demonstrated that this fight is
almost not over, as several medalists in gewichtheffen
and langlaufen were disqualified because of doping facts.
An innocent victim of the anti-doping am on the Games
was the Romanian gymnast Andreea that had been stripped
by her golden medal winner performances in the All-Around
Competition of the Sydney 2000 games. Test results indicated
the presence of the bans stimulating means-pseudophedrine
that had been prescribed at her through an Olympic physician.
Raducan was not had been prescribed had on the height
of the presence of the illegal matter in the medicine
that for her a cold they during the playing.
During the winter game of 2006, not only an athlete
a medicine test and had withdrawn a medal. The only
other affair concerned its 12 members with a high extent
of hemoglobine and their punishment was a five days
suspension for the health reasons.
In October 2007, American sprinter Marion Jones permitted
to have taken steroïden for the Sydney 2000 Olympic
summer game. As a consequence of these recordings, Jones
with a suspension of two year and verbeurdverklaring
of all medals, results, points and praise earned after
1 September 2000. Marion Jones now confronted with a
six months lasting stay in the prison.
The Internationally Olympic Comite imported blood test
for the first time during these play.
