NIH Cancels Funding Eligibility for Colombian Animal Tormentor Duo

PETA has received news that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has finally acted and officially shut off the spigot of money flowing to the Colombian organizations at the center of an 18-month PETA investigation. On June 29, according to NIH correspondence PETA has received, the agency rescinded the eligibility of the Caucaseco Scientific Research Center and the Malaria Vaccine and Development Center to receive U.S. taxpayer money. This means it’s unlikely these laboratories will ever torment any other animals in pointless experiments again.
