Some people think that testing on animals is necessary for discovering medicine that helps fight diseases, while others believe it is not necessary to test on animals for this reason. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

It is very quite common to
test
first
on animals when any new invention of vaccines. Most of the people believe that any new medicine before introduce should be
test
Suggestion
tested
on animals.
However
, some people arguing that it is not ethical to
test
on animals. In my opinion, I completely agree that any new medicine must be
first
tried on animals before give it to humans.
This
essay will describe both the arguments with the examples.
Firstly
, in the pharma industry, it is very common to
test
any new injections or tablets,
initially
on rats or cats as part of their clinical trials and once it is working as expected
then
only they move forward their trials. To exemplify, a recent survey conducted by an organisation in 2019 in the US, it was found that 85% people agreed that initial trials should be on animals.
For example
, in recent COVID19 pandemic, plethora of drug institutes doing their research to find a vaccine which cures
this
pandemic. They tested
this
medicine on animals and succeed and move
further
now it is in
last stages
Suggestion
the last stages
of trials, soon it will available to humans. So
this
type of medicines should try on animals
then
only make them available to humans.
On the other hand
, some people arguing that
this
is not good practice to
test
any new medicines on animals like rats, dogs etc.
Although
, it is helping humans still they think that innocent creatures, lost their lives as part of trials and it is not ethical to kill animals for
this
purpose. So they are requesting biotech companies to come up with new ideas to make their trails and they are hoping it should happen soon. In conclusion,
this
practice of testing on animals was coming from hundreds of years. Most of the individuals feel that it is safe for humans
first
it should
test
on animals.
However
, some animal lovers objecting
this
is not the correct treatment. I believe any vaccine
first
should try on animals before give it to the individuals.
