Scientists have figured out how to infect mice with the virus responsible for the common cold. They claim that this could lead to a more complete understanding of the virus’ behavior and the development of possible treatments. This is not great news if you’re a lab mouse, but it probably beats grislier fates like having your spine severed or being forced to digest carcinogenic substances.
you are so correct but you know what really sucks… those same said lab rats have to be “pure” and they cost over 1000.00 each its mind boggleing … seems to me well no that would be so politically incorrect… anyway hope you have had a great monday!
A lot of animal testing isn’t even needed, either.
