“Isn’t animal testing responsible for every major medical advance?”?
http://www.stopanimaltests.com/Medical historians have shown that improved nutrition and sanitation standards and other behavioral and environmental factors—rather than knowledge gained from animal experiments—are responsible for the decreasing number of deaths from common infectious diseases since 1900 and that medicine has had little to do with increased life expectancy. Many of the most important advances in the field of health care can be attributed to human studies, which have led to major medical breakthroughs, such as the development of anesthesia, the stethoscope, morphine, radium, penicillin, artificial respiration, x-rays, antiseptics, and CAT, MRI, and PET scans; the study of bacteriology and germ theory; the discovery of the link between cholesterol and heart disease and the link between smoking and cancer; and the isolation of the virus that causes AIDS. Animal testing played no role in these or many other important medical developments.

Animal testing is responsible for Thalidomide – the drug that caused many many babies to be born without limbs such as arms and legs. It proved that testing drugs on animals does not make them safe for humans as humans are different genetically.
More recently, other drugs that had been tested on animals were used in England on humans, and those that took it ended up on life support machines.
Testing on animals is cruel, unnecessary and ineffective. It relies on human ignorance – the ignorance of the general public who assume that it must be beneficial. It is only sustained because of the amount of money that the testing companies make from it.
They should be concentrating on human stem cell and genes testing where no one is cruelly treated, animal or human, and results have been very encouraging.
Let’s get rid of animal cruelty altogether – the only people it benefits are the ones that make money from it.
