Using animals in disease research
Aristotle in the fourth century started using animals in experiments to compare between animals and human's body. Therefore in 1859 Darwin's theory strengthened Aristotle experiments ,and since that animals have been used in research. However, people still debating whether it is necessary to use animals in research or not . The three following reasons show why using animals in disease research is necessary .
First, animals are not different from humans, they share a lot of similarities . Mice for example have the same organs as humans , in the same place and doing the same jab. Which make them affected by the same factors. So scientistes try the drugs in laboratory animals first before using it in humans.
Second, using animals in disease research is the most important part to develop any medicine , and to finde out their possibility of treating disease .It is necessary to try the drugs before giving them to the patent to see if there any side effect or complication .
Finally, Other research methods are ineffective . Scientists tried to use different ways to avoid using animals in research ,like computer models. Yet these methods didn't give the same result to the druges as human's body did, and this may put someone life in real jeopardy .
On the other side , some people says there are some field experiments for drugs was safety tested in animals and had a negative impact in humans. But this is a one of thousand testes worked perfectly in humans. Others might say using animals in research is against humanity.Actually , sacrificeing animals to save people lives is a part of our humanity.
Since time immemorial humans use animals to help them in several areas. Also millions of people get benefit from medications have been tested in animals. The question becomes: without animals research, can medicine be as effective as we see it today?
