Volksinitiative für ein Tier- und Menschenversuchsverbot – Die Universitätsspitäler und medizinischen Fakultäten raten aufgrund der schwerwiegenden Folgen für die Schweiz von einer Annahme ab.
unimedsuisse weist auf die Auswirkungen einer Annahme der Initiative für ein Verbot von Tier- und Menschenversuchen hin. Insbesondere schwer und chronisch kranke Personen, sowie solche mit seltenen Erkrankungen, die dringend auf bessere medizinische Behandlungsmethoden angewiesen sind, wären betroffen. Zusätzlich verhindert die Initiative auch die Forschung in den Bereichen Pädagogik, Psychologie und Pflege, welche für stark pflege- und betreuungsbedürftigen Personen wichtig sind. Im Ausland entwickelte Medikamente könnten in der Schweiz nicht mehr auf den Markt kommen. unimedsuisse empfiehlt deshalb die Ablehnung der Initiative.
