You’re welcome. It’s very telling that WADA does not have a readily available statistic over how many athletes have received these exceptions per country. WADA also doesn’t give a comparison of prize winners to exception holders (“of the 100 winners x% had one or more medical exceptions”). The rules also vary some places your national org grants the exception, some places it’s an international org. Most of the date is only available due to Russian hackers. I’m trying to find more info at the moment and my best piece of info is a twitter thread with no links lmao. That thread claims that China only got a few % percent of its TUE applications granted.
If I can find the actual leaks themselves I might make an effort post about it.

That’d be interesting if you do. I’d enjoy reading it.
