As an animal doctor and someone who has spent three decades on biomedical research, I know that animal res earch saves lives. I am concerned about deceptive claims from animal rights activists about the need for animal research. As we know, animal studies continue to be necessary for advancing human and animal health and have played avital role in every major medical advance. This includes lifesaving drugs vaccines ( 疫苗 ),
new surgical procedures, and improved diagnosis of disease.
Animal activists try to deceive people and count on socie ety's general lack of scientific insight to advance their a genda . These activists misrepresent the ability of comp uters and emerging scientific techniques to serve as su # # bst it ute s for animal studies. Government regulations an ound the world require that new drugs,vaccines, and surigical implants first be tested in animals for potential re actions to poisonous substances.
