View of animal use for medical and health research in U.S. adults 2015
This statistic is based on a survey conducted in January 2015. It depicts the share of U.S. adults and their opinion on the use of animals for biomedical and health research as necessary for human health progress. Some 27 percent of adults claimed that using animal testing in medical and health research was not necessary. New legislation has been announced that would help improve the state of health care and medical research, especially as citizens believe that research is important for development of the economy.
