These tests aren't performed for making better medicines for people. It's all about money. When you get cancer, the doctors will give you meds that are being pushed down their throats by the multi-billion pharmacy industry. And it's already proven that animals differ too much from people to get reliable results from these tests. If you get cancer and you don't get the option to chose for meds that haven't been tested on animals, it's because such medicines do not exist, and PETA isn't to blame for that, the pharmacy industry is to blame for that. Same goes for driving a car, drinking coffee, eating chocolate, smoking cigarettes, all that has been tested on animals. So people who want to refuse using meds and products that have been tested on animals won't have a life. Now who is to blame for that?
Anyone thinking these tests are crucial: go offer yourself as a volunteer in one of those labs. Those animals didn't chose to be there.
