ALERT:

Every day, thousands of animals are experimented on or killed to create and test drugs that will never help a sick human being. In some cases, animal tests suggest that a new drug is dangerous when in fact it would be quite safe for humans; yet the drug is abandoned. In other cases, drugs appear safe in animal tests when in fact they are dangerous to humans. In both cases, a drug’s effect in animals makes for a very inexact predictor of its effect on people.
