Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Therapeutic Use Exemption.

It's where an athlete is allowed to take medication to treat an illness or condition where the medication needed is on WADA's prohibited substance list. The application has to be assessed by an independent committee who recommends it is to be allowed or otherwise.

Its open to abuse as a form of legal doping, as came out in the Fancy Bears leaks.
