The pharmaceutical industry is depleting horseshoe crab populations along the Atlantic coast in order to harvest the animals’ blood to make a product used to test injectable medications like vaccines for safety.
Big Pharma Is Bleeding Horseshoe Crabs Dry to Meet Growing Demand for Vaccines
God says we should not eat these creatures. So now we are going to inject ourselves with their fluids?
The pharmaceutical industry has bought off the government.
If the crabs are that important to them you’d think the pharma industry would practice conservation.
Their blood is blue. They are not crabs. Closer to spiders.
I remember snagging these things all the time while fishing in the coastal waters of Maryland and Delaware when I was a kid.
Where’s PETA? Horseshoe crabs lives or any creatures’ lives don’t really matter to Marxist propagandists.
Sorry Dave.
On the next day, as they were on their way and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the fnsixth hour to pray.
10 But he became hungry and was desiring to eat; but while they were making preparations, he fell into a trance;
11 and he saw the fnsky opened up, and an fnobject like a great sheet coming down, lowered by four corners to the ground,
12 and there were in it all kinds of four-footed animals and fncrawling creatures of the earth and birds of the fnair.
13 A voice came to him, “Get up, Peter, fnkill and eat!”
14 But Peter said, “By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything fnunholy and unclean.”
15 Again a voice came to him a second time, “What God has cleansed, no longer consider fnunholy.”
16 This happened three times, and immediately the fnobject was taken up into the fnsky.
