Mad cows on the loose
Recently a case of mad cow disease was discovered on a dairy farm in California. The dairy farm did a random check of about 60 cows and one tested positive for mad cow disease. Although mad cow can not be transferred through dairy milk and dairy cows are not used in the american food chain for meat there is still possible chances of mad cow getting through the system. This is due to that cows can be infected and not show signs of being a host of this disease. It can take up to 8 years to show signs of mad cow disease and that is why we need to raise our awareness and take major precautions on preventing a out break of this disease that could wreak havoc on humans today.just imagine how many humans eat american beef? Millions everyday! And all it takes is once to contract this disease.
