As a concrete measure to mitigate the risks and lower the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on snow sports, FIS will, with immediate effect, add the Covid-19 antibodies test to all athletes undergoing doping controls.
FIS will offer the service to all athletes subject to blood collection testsat the cost of FIS for the additional analysis which is currently planned to last until March 2021 subject to the review of the overall situation.
Special thanks go to the FIS-contracted doping control agencies PWC, Clearidium, the ITA and multiple National Anti-Doping Agencies and laboratories, who support this initiative with the additional administrative element to be managed.
