This article is a debate between two highly respected individuals, Simon Festing and Ray Greek. Festing graduated in 1987 with a bachelor in medicine from the London Hospital Medical College. He is now the executive director of the Research Defense Society in Britain. His job is to defend the use of animal testing in the UK. He has been a member or multiple voluntary support groups. In this article, he obviously represents the use of animals for testing in the debate. Ray Greek works with his wife, Jean Greek traveling the world speaking to scientists and activists about the negative impacts of the use of animals for research. They also speak with the intention of exposing the "money-driven superstition called animal-modelled biomedical research". Ray Greek is the scientific adviser of the National Anti-Vivisection Society in America, the president of Americans for Medical Advancement, and the medical director of Europens for medical advancement. Him and his wife are convinced human health is at risk if animals continue to be used for the purpose of medical reasearch. They also believe animals are going to become exstinct if this kind of reasearch and testing continues.
