It's atypical BSE which is non contagious, naturally occurring and not harmful to humans nor the food chain!

I read yesterday that it wasnt a food chain cow and that the old site they were using as a dumping/burning ground has been identified as a potential site for new homes. Scientists were saying that the disease is resistant to normal breakdown by weather etc and so could still be in the ground.

However I did no further research to validate or nullify these claims so it could all be bull shit parfon the pun...

What is more concerning is five dead seals in Cornwall and a dead dolphin in Devon have all tested positive for avian flu! People are being told not to go near any live, distressed or dead seals

They are going to cull a cow that's already dead?

That seems excessive

A body of opinion holds that there's a hidden vCJD timebomb from the 1980s still to go off.

If you're in the air and propellers fall asleep, you're in trouble

Perhaps it's because they have aviation flu

There is talk that a derelict slaughterhouse, once used to butcher mad cow disease riddled beef will be turned into a housing estate. Some scientists say the Mad Cow Spores like dormant ready to hatch on unsuspecting New occupants. Some scientists say it's perfectly safe. What's going on here guys? It's like Anthrax..leave the site alone and fence it off

Pretty sure all the culled cows were burnt Tom.

CJD is also transmitted through eating infected meat (brain or nervous tissue to be specific) and isn't spread by spores.

It’s a bit harsh to cull a dead cow but if it’s all over the news then it’s all over the news I guess.

Let's be clear. People suggesting they culled a dead cow are sadly mistaken. The cow was already dead but they culled the bloodline is Toms understanding

Apparently, symptoms include referring to oneself in the third person and making shit up.
