There are protocols to be followed. I am not clear on what they are in this case. Usually a
scientific journal requires that the "patient" give informed consent and that a Human
Subject's review panel be involved. I actually have no idea what the athlete signs off on in
terms of research.
She might have a case on this aspect; not that it really does anything about her positive tests. If
rules or laws were violated, penalties should be enforced.
