‘Anti-Russia hysteria got chronic’: PM Medvedev slams WADA ban on Russian athletes

‘Anti-Russia hysteria got chronic’: PM Medvedev slams WADA ban on Russian athletes WADA’s decision to ban Russia from the Olympics and all major sports events for four years is the offshoot of anti-Russia hysteria, PM Dmitry Medvedev has said, calling on the authorities to challenge the decision in court. The blanket ban on Russian athletes appears to be a continuation of today’s geopolitics, gripped by the ‘Russia scare’ for quite some time, the Prime Minister said Monday. He pointed to the persistent attempts to punish the country and its athletes. “The fact that such decisions are taken repeatedly – and often in relation to the athletes who have already been punished one way or another – suggests that this is the continuation of the anti-Russian ...

French mayor BANS citizens from dying on weekends and holidays due to lack of doctors

French mayor BANS citizens from dying on weekends and holidays due to lack of doctors The mayor of a rural French community has taken the rather extreme and outlandish decision to ban residents from “dying in their homes on Saturdays, Sundays and on public holidays” due to a lack of doctors in the area. La Gresle is community of roughly 850 people on the outskirts of Lyon which, like many rural communities across France, suffers an acute dearth of doctors, nurses and other medical practitioners. The problem came to a head early this December after no doctor could be found to record official medical details following the death of an elderly nursing home resident.

Out of sight, out of mind: BoJo grabs journo’s phone, puts it in pocket when asked about 4yo sleeping on hospital floor (VIDEO) UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson snatched a journalist’s phone out of his hand and, in a bizarre move, stuck it in his own pocket after the reporter tried to show him a photo of a sick boy forced to sleep on a hospital floor. Johnson’s interview with ITV’s Joe Pike went awry when the reporter sought to confront him about the fate of a four-year-old boy with suspected pneumonia who hit the headlines after he had to sleep on the floor of an emergency department in Leeds due to a lack of beds. Pike posted a video of his encounter with Johnson on Twitter. At one point, he showed BoJo a photo of the child on his phone and asked t...

‘Rodchenkov’s data is illegal, how can you take it as authentic?’ – Russian Sports Minister

Uncategorized

‘Rodchenkov’s data is illegal, how can you take it as authentic?’ – Russian Sports Minister Russian Sports Minister Pavel Kolobkov has said that comparing data from the Moscow laboratory with information provided by fugitive doctor Grigory Rodchenkov is inherently unreliable. Speaking at a press conference on Monday, the Russian sports chief underlined that Russia has fully met all the requirements stipulated by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), criticizing the body for using “illegal” data provided by Rodchenkov as evidence. “Moscow laboratory data was constantly renewed and corrected, this is not a secret,” Kolobkov said. “But I think it’s impossible to compare it with data provided by Rodchenkov.
