Animal experiments should be banned. Poor creatures.
How do you test something like this without animals? Honest question. Not saying it's right but I'm curious, do we just test on humans first?
politicians?
Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should be done.
Generally speaking, when you research this kind of invasive technology you pay attention to the effects of the procedure. If you get evidence of malpractice or procedures that have plenty of severe side effects, you put a hold on the whole thing and go back to the whiteboard. There are plenty of things here signaling wrong procedures, line really wrong. 15 out of 23 mammals having died is not noise, it's signal.
"One primate developed a bloody skin infection and had to be euthanized. Another was discovered missing fingers and toes, “possibly from self-mutilation or some other unspecified trauma,” and had to be put down. A third began uncontrollably vomiting shortly after surgery, and days later “appeared to collapse from exhaustion/fatigue.” An autopsy revealed the animal suffered from a brain hemorrhage."
It's a double edged sword. The technology would be a miracle for people and families, but to perfect it before putting it in a human you would need to test on something else. How else do you get fda to approve something? Fake a pandemic kek
The monkey on the right should be in the same cage as the monkey on the left.
