Human subject research

Healthy, young volunteers will be infected with coronavirus to test vaccines and treatments in the world's first Covid-19 "human challenge" study, which will take place in the UK.

The study, which has received ethics approval, will start in the next few weeks and recruit 90 people aged 18-30.

Approximately 266,000 animals are being exposed to vivisection in 130 labs across Turkey, according to an animal rights association newly founded to stop the procedures of cutting into or otherwise injuring living animals for the purpose of scientific research.
