    In the UK, around 3,000 monkeys are used annually. Much of this use is to develop and test the safety and effectiveness of potential human medicines and vaccines. Primatesare also used for studying how the brain functions and in research relating to human reproduction.

     

    And importing monkeys to the United States has become increasingly difficult as almost all commercial air carriers now refuse to fly the animals. Yet according to the new USDA figures, scientists used 75,825 nonhuman primates for research last year, up 22% since 2015 and 6% since 2008

     

    if I the monkey I prefer be the coconut monkey, than the medical torture monkey. 

    Please give the full story, Thailand has also just stated that they have completed trials of CV-19 on Monkeys and hope to commence human trials in the near future ................!!!!

    The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or Peta, has called for a boycott of coconut products from Thailand, claiming the monkeys are being forced to clamber up trees to pick coconuts, but the Commerce Ministry has pointed out that it is a Thai tradition and part of the country’s culture.

    Absolutely correct, PC has gone completely mad it is a shame that some people have nothing better to do and about time other woke up to what they are creating...!!!

    "I think business travelers would be the first group to go abroad when the EU opens up. But, I don't think Thais would like to travel abroad at this moment as they are not confident about hygiene standards out there," said Kritapas Patamanate, managing director of AOM Travel, a tour operator in Thailand.

    How about the real reason being many Thai's cannot afford to travel abroad at this moment in time ..........!!!
