For some reason, this hasn't been posted already (somebody is slipping up!). The article appeared in "The Japan Times"... note how the last paragraph fumbles: "...MBM, as the feed is known, is suspected..."

Whoever was editing this piece tried to fix the remark to say "is suspected" instead of "is known", but forgot to erase the "is known".

Certainly, Japan will continue to experience BSE cases in animals born after feed bans. As time goes on, we will eventually reveal the true causative agent of prion diseases. Japan is destind to continue the BSE saga, having 55 nuclear facilities in a country smaller than most USA states. They are also operating a newly opened plutonium enrichment facility, in Aomori Prefecture near the village of Rokkasho. Also note, Hokkaido Prefecture is where they mine uranium.

Ministry confirms 25th mad cow

A health ministry panel confirmed Wednesday that a dairy cow raised in western Japan has tested positive for mad cow disease, making it the nation's 25th case of BSE, ministry officials said.

The carcass of the 71-month-old Holstein born in Hokkaido, which was raised on a farm in Nagi, Okayama Prefecture, will be incinerated and not enter the human food chain, they said.

The cow was born before the government banned meat-and-bone meal in 2001. MBM, as the feed is known, is suspected of being a cause of the disease, which is formally called bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

:lol: :lol: :roll:



dream on kathy. BSE is not caused by radiation. it is caused by feeding tainted TSE products to cattle and other species, plus the vertical and horizontal transmissions. the only radiation poisoning i see here is you, you are glowing in the dark with this nonsense, in relations to TSEs. ...
