Cape Town – The African National Congress (ANC) has joined the chorus of support for South African athlete Caster Semenya.
The Olympic champion is appearing before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland to challenge rules proposed by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) that would force her to lower her testosterone levels.
Track and field’s governing body says it is introducing the rules to create a “level playing field” for other female athletes.
The ANC released a press statement on the matter on Wednesday night, calling the IAAF’s ruling “dehumanising”.
The statement read: “The African National Congress joins President (Cyril) Ramaphosa and millions of South Africans in expressing support for Caster Semenya, as she challenges the dehumanising ruling of the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland.
“We are encouraged by the resounding support the government and people of South Africa have expressed for our national champion, Caster Semenya. As the minister of sports, Thokozile Xhasa, travels to Switzerland to support Caster and personally convey the support of government and the nation, we commend her bold step to demonstrate to the world that South Africa will never forsake one of its own when subjected to bigotry and dehumanising treatment.
“Ours is a democracy built on a human rights foundation, where the right to have one’s human dignity respected and protected, is entrenched in our supreme law. We declare for all the nations of the world to know that our struggles for a just world, underpinned by respect and protection of human rights will never be compromised.
“The legacy bestowed on us by the giants of our liberation struggle such as Nelson Mandela, require of us to lead from the frontlines in demonstrating to the world that its support in declaring apartheid a crime against humanity was never in vain.”
The ANC added that it was appalled by the IAAF’s actions.
“We will never stand on the sidelines when the human rights legacy of our young democracy is under threat. We call on the international sporting world to raise their voices and condemn the despicable actions of the IAAF, which seek to force Caster Semenya to deny her nature and take drugs to alter what nature bestowed on her.”
Semenya won the 800 metre gold medals at both the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, and also won her third world title in London two years ago.
In the United States, the probability of dying from opioids has for the first time surpassed the likelihood of being killed in a car crash, according to a new report by the National Safety Council.
Published recently and based on National Center for Health Statistics’ 2017 data, the report found that opioid overdose was the fifth most probable cause of preventable death, with a one-in-96 odds. The odds of dying in a vehicular crash were one-in-103.
Worsening crisis
More probable causes than opioids overdoses were heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory disease and suicide.
Opioids contributed to the overwhelming majority – 69% – of fatal drug overdoses in 2016, totalling 37 814 deaths, according to the NSC.
These opioids include the use of illegal narcotics, such as heroin, and prescription pain killers, such as oxycodone and hydrocodone.
“The nation’s opioid crisis is fuelling the Council’s grim probabilities, and that crisis is worsening with an influx of illicit fentanyl,” the council said in a statement, referring to a synthetic opioid often used to treat severe pain.
Just a day before the report was released, one person died and at least 12 people were hospitalised in northern California in what police described as a “mass overdose” stemming from fentanyl use.
In 2017, overdose deaths soared, surpassing 70 000, according to the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics.
And between 2013 and 2017, fatal drug overdose rates grew in 35 of the 50 US states as well as the District of Columbia. In many of those states, synthetic opioids were behind a growing number of deaths, per CDC statistics.
Scourge of drug addiction
In December, a separate report concluded that fentanyl had become more common than heroin in drug overdose deaths in the country.
US President Donald Trump signed an opioid law in late October. The bipartisan law expanded medical treatment for opioid users and made it more difficult to mail illicit drugs.
“Together we are going to end the scourge of drug addiction in America,” Trump said during an event at the time.
“We are going to end it or we are going to at least make an extremely big dent in this terrible, terrible problem.”
The legislation expands access to substance abuse treatment in Medicaid, the government health insurance programme for the poor and disabled.
Empty words and broken promises
It also cracks down on mailed shipments of illicit drugs such as fentanyl, and provides a host of new federal grants to address the crisis.
In October 2017, Trump declared opioid addiction a 90-day emergency, a limited declaration that critics said fell short of implementing the measures needed to combat the crisis.
Critics also point to Trump’s previous attempts to slash hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid, which provides treatment to around one-third of people seeking help with substance abuse.
In July 2018, Senator Elizabeth Warren, a vocal opponent of Trump, accused the Trump administration of undermining programmes that are pivotal to tackle the opioid crisis.
In a nine-page letter to the president, Warren said his administration “failed to take the actions needed to meaningfully address this crisis … (and has) continued to substitute empty words and broken promises for real action and bold ideas”.
