CCP Trains With Illegal Drugs Posted: 29 Jul 2012 07:12 AM PDT | Follow us on TWITTER: twitter.com Like us on FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com Before the opening of the London Olympics, a former doctor for the Chinese gymnastics team disclosed to Australian media that in the 1980s and 1990s, Chinese athletes were required to use illegal drugs according to a policy of the Chinese authorities. During the 1980s, Xue Yinxian was a chief doctor for the Chinese gymnastics team. On July 27, Xue told the Sydney Morning Herald that during the rise of Chinese sports in the 1980s, the use of steroids, human growth hormones, and other banned drugs was part of the so-called official scientific training by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Xue Yinxian said the players often did not know they had been injected with illegal drugs, and nurses who refused to participate were marginalized. Reports said that this is the first time insiders who had previously worked within the CCP system spoke out about these activities. In the 1990s, after a series of Chinese athlete drug scandals, the Chinese authorities placed blame on the athletes or coaches, saying they did so to pursue personal fame, and marked them as personal acts.
