Elon Musk’s Neuralink, a medical device company, is under federal investigation for potential animal-welfare violations amid internal staff complaints that its animal testing is being rushed, causing needless suffering and deaths, according to documents reviewed by Reuters and sources familiar with the investigation and company operations.
Neuralink Corp is developing a brain implant it hopes will help paralyzed people walk again and cure other neurological ailments. The federal probe, which has not been previously reported, was opened in recent months by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Inspector General at the request of a federal prosecutor, according to two sources with knowledge of the investigation. The probe, one of the sources said, focuses on violations of the Animal Welfare Act, which governs how researchers treat and test some animals.
The investigation has come at a time of growing employee dissent about Neuralink’s animal testing, including complaints that pressure from CEO Musk to accelerate development has resulted in botched experiments, according to a Reuters review of dozens of Neuralink documents and interviews with more than 20 current and former employees. Such failed tests have had to be repeated, increasing the number of animals being tested and killed, the employees say. The company documents include previously unreported messages, audio recordings, emails, presentations and reports.

Is this the place where Fauci let the beagles be eaten alive by flies?? Oh, never mind
I’ve heard some bad things about the animal tests, like monkey’s being paralyzed so all they have is their mind to try and make it work.

People in the Inner party are given a pass. People outside who disturb the status quo of the elites will be given the third degree.
Pure Evil .
Torture for a Buck .
Monstrous.
Cool! Now do Maybelline. And Pfizer. And...
This is called “Get Musk” for supporting free speech.
Right. Evil to let those humans be able to walk. How horrible.../s.
The way around the constitutional prohibition against bills of attainder is simply to decide who you want to punish and then have the executive branch investigate everything about them forever, make stuff up if you have to, and then put him away for whatever you found or made up.
I’m fine with animal testing.
If anyone is fine with slaughtering perfectly healthy animals to selfishly eat them, they should be okay with testing, too.
Stop testing on animals for pete sake. It’s cruel. Much better results using death row inmates....now that’s the way to go. Those parasites will actually give back to society
Yep, NIAID & Fauci torturing Beagle puppies. Fauci included cutting their vocal cords out, infesting the dogs with ticks, and placing dogs in cages with infectious sandflies.
There’s a big difference between animal testing and useless, pointless, inhumane experiments on animals, be it rabbits, mice, rats or Beagle puppies.
This man must be stopped at all costs. Our Democracy is at stake. How can we hold that Democracy together and standby as he does research on giving eyesight to the blind.
Plus he has way too much money and terrible political instincts.
“and terrible political instincts.”
But he has seen the light!
“I’ve heard some bad things about the animal tests,”
“Based on low chance of full recovery … and her current poor psychological wellbeing, it was decided that euthanasia was the only appropriate course of action,” Baker wrote colleagues about one of the pigs a day after the surgery, adding a broken heart emoji.

Musk in it for the cash .
Lets torture your pets fist .
Humans mean more than animals, everyone but low lifes know that.
Musk can’t circumvent the government oversight on medical device research since it’s in the USA. It’s why the USDA has jurisdiction.
Whether they’re trustworthy is another matter.
People against animal research should just die instead of being treated by any method developed this way.
You aren’t the first to think this way. It’s why Hitler used prisoners for medical research.
But the governments of the world are cruelly allowed to test the fake VAX on human beings.
