Yes? We didn't stop testing on monkeys, we just got a lot more selective about who got told about that. It's not pretty, but in order for science to advance, with the technology we have today, it involves testing on animals, because it would be worse to test unsafe things on humans.
This is an incredible use of tech! Would love to hear what the HN community think.
