An honest question if I may

How are the samples stored and how long does what ever you've taken stay in that sample? Floyds sample is now a week old how can you expect to get the same results as a sample tested the day it is given? This whole thing is so confusing.
Thanks

Samples are refrigerated. Also at WADA/IOC accredited labs, I believe WADA guidelines are that samples are retained for "a minimum of 3 months" after testing. I know that this information is on the WADA website. Will investigate.

I do know that storage method can come to play. Tyler Hamilton's B sample of blood from Athens was frozen and that played into the reason why the B sample was invalidated and they couldn't strip the gold from him.

I think with time, sample will be (a little) better for Floyd.
If it was the reverse, I think the two samples would be tested at the same time.
But we know now lab can detect EPO in 6 years old urines, but the procedure is yet not approuved.

LMAO 🙂 😄
Not sure I'd want to drink a vino that was stored next to P..... As far as the beer goes I guess it depends on if it was American, yankee beer tastes like p... anyway, Canadian beer on the other hand rocks!
