i'm not bothered becauce i'm a vegitarian

what exactly does mad cow disease do to humans?

and while we're at it, what caused it?

I have no clue, but i think it kills them or something like that, the person eating it.

We had a huge outbreak of CJD (Mad Cow Disease) in the UK a couple of years back. I was off eating meat for about 5 months. What it is, is a disease which Cows are infected with. When we eat the beef from a cow that has been infected, the disease is passed on and starts to eat away at our brain cells. It can also have a period of time, from which it stays in our body not causing any damage. So we could find out that we have CJD about 10 years later . Anyway thats near enough all I know on the subject.

Thx. Now i gurentee myself not to eat meat.

No problem

Where did it oringinate again?
