HSV Vaccine Results, page-8

A lot of research results don't translate well when it comes to human.
That's because even though they are similar in genomes/genetic, they are not actually the same (not close enough).
Take monkey for example, they are one of the closest animal to human kind; even when you use them to do research, it still won't translate 100% over to human.
There's a reason why everything need to go to human trial (like, hello, you really need people to tell you this?), because nothing so far is 100% transferable.
However, if you use monkey, it has a higher chance comparing to mouse.
If you use mouse, it has higher chance compared to using some other animals.
Just because a lot of research on mouse don't translate well to human, doesn't mean it is a FAIL.
The whole point is to filter out dodgy drug before it gets to human trial.
If it works on mices, the chance of it working on human is higher <- doesn't mean it will 100% work.
