The supply of animals cannot keep up with the demand for biomedical research studies on COVID and other diseases. (In-depth story by Jackie Flynn Mogensen for Mother Jones Magazine, June 23, 2022, interviewing National Primate Research Centers Directors and staff.)
Some of the benefits to human health made possible through the use of rhesus macaques include: development of the rabies, smallpox, and polio vaccines, discovery of the Rh factor in blood
Because of their anatomical and physiological closeness to humans, the relative ease at which they can be maintained and bred in captivity, and the available supply from India, rhesus macaques have long been the nonhuman primate of choice on which to conduct research on human and animal health-related topics (Mitruka 1976, Cauvin et al 2015). In recent years, there has been a shortage of rhesus macaques for biomedical research in the United States due to a combination of factors. These include China shutting down exports of macaques bred specifically for research, an insufficient reserve of monkeys in the US, and the COVID-19 pandemic, with more research needed capuchin monkey
