Mad cow scares have since spread across Europe as governments try to cope with possible infections and resultant fears. Fear and mystery of cross-species killer It was a routine visit by a country vet to a dairy farm in southern England that set off the chain of events that was to become Britain's and perhaps Europe's most notorious food scare.
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy: Main Index, CDC
called bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, or "mad cow disease"), and a disease in humans, called variant CreutzfeldtJakob
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/diseases/cjd/cjd.htm

Extractions: Since 1996, evidence has been increasing for a causal relationship between ongoing outbreaks in Europe of a disease in cattle, called bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, or "mad cow disease"), and a disease in humans, called variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). Both disorders are invariably fatal brain diseases with unusually long incubation periods measured in years, and are caused by an unconventional transmissible agent. BSE has not been detected in the United States, despite active surveillance efforts since May 1990. It is extremely unlikely that BSE would be a foodborne hazard in this country. CDC monitors the trends and current incidence of CJD in the United States, while the U.S. Department of Agriculture has conducted active surveillance efforts for BSE since May 1990.

Latest experiments by Cambridge University prion specialist, David R. Brown, have shown that manganese bonds with prions. Other researchers work shows that prions in the bovine spine along which insecticides are applied can be damaged by ICI's Phosmet organophosphate(OP) insecticide -causing the disease. British scientists have led the current theory that an infectious prion in bonemeal fed to cattle causes bovine spongiform disease (BSE).
MAD COW DISEASE: THE BSE EPIDEMIC IN GREAT BRITAIN

http://www.accessexcellence.org/WN/NM/madcow96.html

Extractions: The announcement by British health authorities that bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, pictured in medulla of cow, left), also known as mad cow disease, may have been transmitted to humans has led to a chaotic situation in the UK with ripple effects occurring throughout Europe and the rest of the world. What is BSE and what is its relation to scrapie in sheep and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans? How did the current epidemic begin? I asked Frederick A. Murphy, DVM, PhD, Dean of the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of California, Davis these and other questions in an attempt to sort out the science from the media hysteria surrounding the announcement from the UK on March 21, 1996 that 10 people may have become infected with the BSE agent through exposure to beef.

Extractions: No cases of BSE have been reported in the United States CJD: human TSE BSE was first observed in Great Britain in April, 1984, and was specifically diagnosed in 1986. Since 1986, nearly cases of BSE in cattle have been identified in the United Kingdom. The epidemic peaked in 1992-93 at almost 1,000 cases per week. Control measures have reduced incidence and currently, less than 100 cases are being reported per week. Introduction: Description of spongiform encephalopathies, timeline and definition of terms
Mad Cow Disease (BSE) - A New Age / Prophecy Analysis
How the Bible's Book of Revelation prophecies relate to mad cow disease.
http://www.revelation-13.com/BSE.html

Extractions: But the disease would never have spread if England's beef farmers had not been feeding ground up cow remains to cows to make them grow faster, which spread the disease to other cattle. This being the equivalent of cannibalism in cattle, this beef farming practice is also used elsewhere in the world. If they had fed the cattle ground-up leftover fish instead, then this never would have happened. And another terrible thing about BSE is that the infectious prion molecules that spread it are very hard to destroy by heat or chemicals, and can last years in the soil. So you can't just bury BSE infected cattle, you have to incinerate them at high temperatures. So a widespread epidemic of BSE could contaminate the environment with infectionious prions. And noone knows if other feed animals such as pigs and chicken can also spread BSE, or whether other products of cattle such as leather can spread BSE. Maybe you can get it from your leather wallet, noone knows yet. Mad-Cow Disease infecting people's brains was announced on March 20 1996 in England as the Comet Hyakutake passed by the constellation (I mean constellation, not astrological sign) Virgo the Virgin. I think that virgo the Virgin represents Isis, the Egyptian Goddess portrayed with cow's horns, giving us a "cow" connection. And Virgo may also represent Europa, representing Europe, who rides a bull, again giving us a "cow" connection. And Europa on a bull sounds like the woman in the Bible's last chapter, the Book of Revelation, Revelation 17 named "Babylon" who rides the beast of the Antichrist described in Revelation 13 (which may be

http://whyfiles.news.wisc.edu/012mad_cow

Extractions: Courtesy Agricultural Research Service , USDA POSTED 8 FEB 2001 Years after it was supposedly vanquished, mad cow disease, the brain infection that kills cows and some people who eat them, is on a comeback. The disease has spread widely in Europe, and there are danger signs in the United States, where it's never appeared. Mad cow disease is one of several fatal brain diseases called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, or TSEs. (Want The Why Files guide to mad cow lingo?) The jargon says it all: These infectious diseases shoot the brain full of holes, making it look like a sponge. The TSEs were once considered unlikely to infect other species, but some seem to move rather easily among animals. Most glaringly, many scientists believe people can get vCJD (variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease) from eating mad cows. The awkward name reflects the similarity to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a deadly brain illness that strikes about one person per million per year, due to genetic or unknown causes. While CJD mainly afflicts the elderly, vCJD appears among younger people, almost certainly from eating mad cow meat. The gruesome death starts with mood swings, numbness and uncontrolled body movements. Eventually the mind is destroyed, somewhat like Alzheimer's, another brain-wrecking disease.
