Athletes in a relative's public high school are forced to agree to random
urinalysis in order to participate in school sports. I suspected there was
something other than "concern" over drug use behind it (not to mention that
these screenings don't even test for steroids.) As I was doing some research
on this subject, I learned that DNA can be extracted even from small urine
samples now (since about 1995.) I think this trend, in the name of the war
on drugs, is in place to collect DNA samples from an ever-widening range of
people. Almost every adult I know has to pee in a cup to get a job anymore.
The article above may be only about the UK, but we are collecting DNA
samples from felons, etc., a lot in the US. I came across quite a bit of
info on Congress pushing to expand this too.
