How well publicised was the banning of the substance in January?
I'm in no way a professional athlete and yet I get the emails from WADA about changes to the banned substance lists (I think because I'm registered with England Athletics).Not sure what I think.

Thought she admitted that she got the WADA email with a link to the banned substances but never clicked on it?
