Over 120 million laboratory rats and mice are used worldwide each year. Many are used to study distressing conditions like cancer, arthritis and chronic pain, and nearly all spend their lives in small, empty box-like cages: a kind of permanent lockdown.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“empty box-like cages: a kind of permanent lockdown”
\nI can’t tell you how many people I know who are angry that they were inconvenienced by the covid lockdowns and yet are completely indifferent to the suffering of animals who are locked down for _not 2% of their lives but for their entire lives_.<\/p>\n

People need to begin to understand how badly our experimental animals are treated. We had to pass a law so that chickens kept for egg laying were given the ability to to spread their wings in the cages that they lived in all their lives! We treat research animals far worse in many cases! The cosmetic industry, the medical industrial complex, and the pesticide industry use many thousands of animals (literally millions worldwide) to test their products. Lab rats and mice are just the tip of the iceberg many of the dogs and cats that are not able to be “sold” as pets are sold to these “research” groups.<\/p>\n

That said, the article above also illustrates how the stress that we experience in our lives affects our immune systems. One of the reasons I was upset about the reaction by our governments to covid was how much stress was implicit in their mandates. Be well my friends. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
