What happens when the vaccine turns out to sterilize 40% of people who get it? Honkey be laughing now!
You say that like things rushed through for non-scientific reasons have a risk of bad side effects. How absurd!
(Laughs in thalidomide.)
Anyone seen Utopia yet?
And actually, Thalidomide was very thoroughly tested on a variety of species. Unfortunately, it only affects one non-human the same way it does the human - and that species is, ironically enough, the Guinea "Pig". And I recall reading a few years ago where it was being reinvestigated for other uses, with, of course, the caveat that pregnant human women can't have anything to do with it, no matter what.
Really, the Thalidomide case is more of an example of why "animal" testing is shit. They're like us enough to rely on experiments on them, but not like us enough to care about their suffering? Bullshit. You want results, use non-functioning, head-banging human retards instead. More ethical all the way around, and the results will be more sure for a human, because wE'rE nOt RaTs, at least when the results aren't something humans want to see (as in the psychological studies that have unfortunate implications for humans. I like how people expected rats in the Universe 25-like experiments to arrange themselves as if they weren't social, and were surprised that they clustered in "cities", rather than just individually claiming territory and spreading out equally. Gee, I guess they would expect humans in a Gilligan's Island situation to not work together, too? Dumbassed supremacists.)
