We did it! Thanks to your support, petition shares, calls, e-mails, and protests, the people behind these cruel actions are without funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for the first time in more than a decade. With NIH funding, researchers at Pitt had induced painful and deadly sepsis in hundreds of mice, puncturing their intestines and allowing fecal matter and accompanying bacteria to leak into their stomachs. Thanks to your actions, that government gravy train has been derailed, preventing more mice from being subjected to unimaginable agony.
