DA,
Besides "MAD COW DISEASE" Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) there
is also "El GATO LOCO DISEASE" Feline Spongiform Encephalopathy (FSE).

Maybe we should 'eliminate' all stray Cats and "Test" all Cat Owners
over the age of 60 Years for Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.
CATS (Felines) ARE EVERYWHERE !
The incident of Human - Feline Interaction is much greater then the
Bovine - Human Interaction.
The 'potential' for CATS being the 'source' of many cases of Human
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is something that should be Studied and
Explored.
Exposing your Children and Grandchildren to Cats may be as BAD
as Second Hand Smoking.
Giving a Child a CAT as a pet may be a 40 Year (Time Delayed)
"Death Sentence".
WHATS IN CAT FOOD? - Dead Cows and Sheep (Dropped Animals) the
'suspected' "Source" of MAD COW DISEASE in Cattle and Humans.
JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT !

Summary, there have always been cases of CJD.
In the under 60 year old group, 1 case in a million.
In the over 60 year old group, 5 cases in a million.
Initially three types, Sporadic, Inherited, Infective.
There is a New Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease which is attributed to
BSE contaminated animals.
"There have been over 100 cases of vCJD, most of which have occurred in
the United Kingdom, and the numbers are still rising. A few cases of
vCJD have been found in France, Ireland, Italy, and Hong Kong. Because
the incubation period between exposure to the TSE agent and the onset of
symptoms may be as long as 40 years, it is uncertain whether these vCJD
cases may signal the beginning of an epidemic or whether the incidence
of vCJD will remain low. At the present time, no vCJD has been
discovered in the United States."
Being that the latency period is as much as 40 years, the extent of the
harm of the 36,000 confirmed cases in one year of BSE (infected cows) in
England in terms of causing vCJD in humans may not be known for a number
of years yet.
