    BSE cow "dead on arrival" to Waco plant

    Apparently the USDA is saying that the dead cow was suspect for BSE, therefore tested and then destroyed and not allowed to enter the pet feed supply. I guess there are some downer animals they do not suspect have BSE, or else all those animals at the plant would be tested.

    in-depth story on conflicting tests

    As far as I know there have been 188,000 BSE cases total worldwide... and 183,000 of those were in England... But atypical BSE has only been found in Italy, France, and Japan... so necessarily it is a small minority of worldwide cases and thus not "english BSE" from the first cow to catch scrapie.
