THE
BOVINE SPONGIFORM ENCEPHALOPATHY
SURVEILLANCE PAGE
Bovine Spongiform
Encephalopathy (hereafter referred to as
"BSE") is a disease which is not well
understood. It is thought to be related to
Creutzfeld-Jakob and Kuru which are prion
diseases, diseases which are caused by self
replicating protein in the brain. There is
evidence now that BSE can affect humans as cross
species transmission has been seen from sheep to
cattle in the past. This webpage is designed to
test the set up procedure for epidemooological
surveys. Enjoy...
First, a little about our
activities...

a mad, mad, mad, mad cow. The wild eyed
look is caused by a full blown case of
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy. |

who has nothing whatsoever to do with
anything else on this page. Fortunately she
doesn't have mad cow disease.

"Mad
cow disease" is destroying many cows around
the world. In memory of the victims of this
horrible disease, we are lobbying to have the
United nations declare April 1 as
"International BSE Awareness Day" and
will be holding a protest which we have named,
"Hooves Around the World" in which cows
from all over the planet will form a cow chain by
joining their hooves in one unbroken chain. We
still haven't worked out the Pacific Ocean gap
but we are working on it.
