LONDON (Reuters) - International athletes should not feel they have to reveal their personal and private medical details to prove they are clean and have not been blood-doping, Britain's IAAF presidential candidate Sebastian Coe said on Wednesday.
In a telephone interview with international media, Coe also said he still wanted to see the sport set up its own independent anti-doping agency to help combat allegations that the sport's governing body is not doing enough to weed out drug cheats and is complicit in the sport's doping problems.
