Animal testing has helped scientists to create new products through various tests and trials. Scientists have come up with a new vaccine for group 1 influenza A, a disese that was previously deadly (Holder, Tom, "A passive defence against the flu?"). Animal testing for products is used to test the safety in cosmetics, foods and other things (Rowan par 4). "It is well know that vaccines, antibiotics,transplant surgery, medical devices such as pacemakers and other development would not be here today if animal testing had not been used" (Cook 1 par 5). By this Cook means that a large number of important medical advances were due to the trials that were preformed on animals.
