| Message | While my party agrees wholeheartedly with the banning of Animal testing in regards to Cosmetics research, we have issues with supporting the amendments to the use of Animals in Medical Research. Many life-saving drugs and vaccinations have been realised through animal-testing. For example, many drugs that fight Leprosy could not have been brought about if they had not been tested on Armadillos. What alternatives for medial testing do the VLP suggest? |
