The Fight Against Animal Testing

By /
A comprehensive infographic titled 'The Fight Against Animal Testing' with sections covering 'Case Study' examples like 'The TGN 1412 Catastrophe' (5 deaths due to immune system differences in testing) and 'The Vioxx Painkiller' (88,000 heart attacks, 38,000 deaths, $4.85 billion lawsuits). It highlights 'Negative Impacts' on the environment (contamination, waste), economy (billions spent on irreproducible research, damages, side effects), and society (50 million animals used, 97% die, unethical treatment). A 'Public's Awareness' section shows 92% are aware of animal use, 75% agree if no alternatives, and 70% are unaware of dangers, accompanied by an image of rabbits. 'Alternatives' listed are 'In Vitro Method,' 'Organ-on-a-Chip' (8x accuracy), and 'Human Tissue.' The infographic concludes with 'STOP ANIMAL TESTING PRODUCT TODAY' and a cruelty-free logo.

Research Summary

My research focuses on the negative impacts of animal testing in medical products, including the impacts on the fields of environment, economy, and society. Using case study as the main methodology as well as quantitative research, the study claims that animal testing is not accurate, unethical, costly, and polluted. The research the suggests three alternatives to replace animal testing. With a lot of negative effects, animal testing should be the least option when it comes to clinical testing and should be banned in some cases.
