Guest guest Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 MAD COW DISEASE HITS NORTH AMERICA http://www.prwatch.org/books/madcow.html In 1997 Sheldon Rampton and John Stauber wrote Mad Cow USA: Could the Nightmare Happen Here. To further public education the book is now available free on our website as a PDF download. It predicted that Mad Cow Disease and similar ailments were likely to emerge in North America since the US (and Canada following its lead) refused to ban all feeding of slaughterhouse waste to livestock. For instance, US and Canadian dairy calves are fed milk formula containing cattle blood plasma, even though blood can transmit mad cow and similar diseases. Mad Cow Disease has now been found in Canada and contaminated feed is a likely source according to the Canadian government.
