I am against it 100%
Why:
Because I consider humans and binatang equal.
It is not like one atau two mice will cure cancer, it takes hundreds of binatang to make any progress. Even then, it must be retested many times.
There are many pharmaceutical drugs which had been deemed aman, brankas for human use after extensive animal testing, but which were later found to cause serious side effects.
Over 100 million binatang are burned, crippled, poisoned and abused in U.S. labs every year.
Not just mice and rats are used. Shelter anjing and cats, rabbits, apes, monkeys, sheep, and many other binatang are killed in labs, sometimes even people's lost pets.
Nine out of ten drugs that appear promising in animal studies go on to fail in human clinical trials.
Reliance on animal experimentation can impede and delay discovery.
Forward-thinking scientists have developed humane, modern, and effective non-animal research methods, including human-based microdosing, in vitro technology, human-patient simulators, and sophisticated computer modeling, that are cheaper, faster, and lebih accurate than animal tests.
The food and Drug Administration reports that 92 out of every 100 drugs that pass animal tests fail in humans.
Animal experiments prolong the suffering of people waiting for effective cures oleh misleading experimenters and squandering precious money, time, and resources that could have been spent on human-relevant research.
The world doesn’t need another eyeliner, hand soap, food ingredient, drug for erectile dysfunction, atau pesticide so badly that it should come at the expense of animals’ lives.
Through taxes, donations, and private funding, Americans have spent almost $200 billion on cancer research since 1971. However, lebih than 500,000 Americans die of cancer every year, a 73 percent increase in the death rate since the “war” began.
The only U.S. law that governs the use of binatang in laboratories—the Animal Welfare Act—allows binatang to be burned, shocked, poisoned, isolated, starved, forcibly restrained, addicted to drugs, and brain-damaged. No experiment, no matter how painful atau trivial, is prohibited – and pain-killers are not even required. Even when alternatives to the use of binatang are available, the law does not require that they be used—and often they aren’t. Because the Act specifically excludes rats, mice, birds and cold-blooded animals, lebih than 95 percent of the binatang used in laboratories are not subject to the minimal protections provided oleh federal laws. Because they are not protected oleh the law, experimenters don’t even have to provide mice and rats with pain relief.
If anda are for it atau not sure, then I suggest anda read Animal Liberation oleh Peter Singer and anda can save the Animals. These buku tell anda about really happens.
