Does medical testing do more harm than good?
yes, in many cases of animal testing animals die and or get very sick during the testing process.
What percentage of animals are given pain killers during animal testing?
Painkillers would affect the tested chemical's actions, and would also have unpredictable interactive effects, and therefore cannot be used.
How many unnecessary deaths of animals is there during animal testing?
all deaths in animal testing are unnecessary. animals and humans regularly have different reactions to drugs and other things they test, so it is almost never accurate.
Do animal hurt during animal testing?
Yes, a lot.
Advantage and Disadvantages of Animal Testing?
Reasons For Animal TestingMedical Advancement: The most obvious advantage of animal testing is for medical experimentation. Advancements in medicine help people, animals, and even plants. Unfortunately, the best way to test potentially new medicines is through animal testing, and if initially successful, then by human testing too. It is considered more humane to do medical testing on animals first, then on humans first, for the obvious reason that human life is considered more precious than animals. Additionally, new medicines can also help animals too, so this falls under the philosophy of the needs of the many (animals) outweigh the needs of the few (animals). Meaning the few animals that are sacrificed or tested upon is worth less than the many animals that are potentially saved or helped, thus helping the greater good is more morale. Of course, this opinion is subjective to each person.Product Safety: Another popular reason for animal testing is for determining the safety of products, such as cosmetics testing. In theory, animals used for safety testing are typically not killed and remain healthy, however they are often maltreated. Again, it is commonly considered that the safety of people outweighs the safety of animals, thus animal testing for safety is common.Scientific Knowledge: Animal testing and experimentation is an excellent source to increase scientific knowledge. No one knows what knowledge that will be attained through animal testing, so the value of such animal testing cannot be ascertained ahead of time or even guessed. The most common examples of animal experimentation for scientific knowledge are animal biopsies and vivisections in schools to teach children biology and medical procedures. While this type of animal testing might not yield immediate useful results, it has been helpful in the long term of helping science.Accuracy: Finally, the biggest reason for animal testing is because it works better than any other alternative. Why animal testing can yield results different than human testing, the similarities between animals and humans is staggering and thus helpful to mankind.Reasons Against Animal TestingTorture and Suffering: Animals undergoing testing can be subjected to torture and suffering. Alternatively in some cases, some animals may be even cured of their ailments and diseases during the process of animal testing.Death: Animals can, and sometimes often, die in the process of animal testing.Ethics/Morality: The ethics and morality of testing on animals is often debated. A large number of people do not believe animal testing is ethical, however they often concede that it is necessary.Choice: Since animals cannot volunteer for animal testing, then some people believe animal testing is not ethical. These people believe that it is only ethical to test on subjects who willingly give their consent for self testing.Accuracy: As mentioned before, animals are different than people, thus their testing results are not always useful or practical for human comparisons. Therefore, if the usefulness of animal testing is in question, then animal testing should be reconsidered.Price: Finally, the price of keeping and disposing of animals can be quite high. That is why testing, on computer simulations, has increased recently. However, the accuracy of computer simulations is less than animal testing.
How many animals die daily because of animal testing?
There is much controversy over the use of animals for research. The practice is known as animal experimentation, animal research or in vivo testing and is conducted worldwide. Over 100 million animals are used annually for this research. Drug testing using animals became a significant part of the drug development process. To avoid new drugs from coming on the market and causing bad reactions, Congress passed a law in 1937 requiring new drugs to be tested on animals first.

Would the topic a history of and reasons for animal testing in medical research lab be acceptable for a 2 to 3 page paper?
The topic "a history of and reasons for animal testing in medical research lab" would be extremely too broad for a 2 to 3 page paper. You might scratch the surface in a 20-page paper, but you'd barely introduce the issues in a 2 to 3 page paper.In 2 to 3 pages, you could briefly and narrowly focus on topics like:Animal Testing for Medical Research Creates Unethical Treatment of AnimalsAnimal Testing for Medical Research Promotes Medical DiscoveriesAnimal Testing for Medical Research Stirs Strong Emotions in Everyday PersonsThe Beginnings of Animal Testing for Medical ResearchHow Animals Used in Animal for Medical Research Live Out their LivesSuffering and Death of Animals used in Animal Testing for Medical ResearchMedical Discoveries Possible through Animal Testing in Medical ResearchCountless Rats Don't Count During Animal Testing in Medical ResearchAnimal Testing in Medical Research Brings Big Bucks to Pharmaceutical (Drug) ManufacturersFido Fights for Life in Animal Testing for Medical Research
