Is Animal Testing Beneficial

Have you ever wondered what animal testing has helped us accomplished? Also, what it has done to our lives? I believe that animal testing is beneficial because it allows us to test medications before they are given to people and has helped us uncover other important things.
How has animal testing helped with Medical progress. Modern surgical techniques including hip replacement surgery, kidney transplants, heart transplants and blood transfusion were all perfected in animals (understandinganimalresearch). This is important because it shows that animal testing has made many important surgical techniques possible. This is also important because it is giving people who need surgery a longer chance to be able to live. In Americans for Medical Progress it states animal testing has helped increase cancer survival by double in the last forty years. This shows that animal testing has be able to make cancer treatments that help stop cancer. This also shows that animal research is making such a dangerous disease treatable and letting people recover from it. These are
In Human Society International it states that 9/10 candidate medicines that appear safe and effective in animal studies fail when given to humans. This shows that every 10 experiments done on animals only 1 will work. This also shows that animals are being killed even if the experiment doesn’t work. In the UK an estimated 70,000 people are killed or severely disabled every year by unexpected reactions to drugs. All these drugs have passed animal tests (Human Society International). This shows that animal testing isn’t reliable if the medicines that are approved are killing people who are taking them. This is important because if the medicines are killing people that have been tested on animals, their should be a new way to make sure they’re safe.This shows that animal testing is useless and there should be another way to make sure drugs are safe before giving them to
