Two cases of Mad Cow Disease in same county in California!

It is similar, another prion disease. It seems strange that deer could get a disease relegated to carnivores, but they tend to graze in the same areas, and when one deer dies, the grass grows a little greener where it decomposes, and the healthy deer end up consuming the infected neural tissue with the green grass.

OMG only thing to do is put all those nuclear weapons Obama wants to get rid of into the San Andreas Fault an hope it floats California out to sea. Seams a good enough reason for me.

better: mad cow copper deficiency manganese poisoning.

Fish & Game department blames it on people feeding the deer like pets. Makes me wonder about GMO produce too. But I think your idea is correct, they eat the grass that has been infected.

Sporadic CJD has been linked to high manganese/copper ratios in local soil and foodstuffs. It seems too much intake of Mn or too little Cu could be a risk factor.

As it happens, most vitamin/mineral supplements contain substantial amounts of Mn with little or no Cu.

so what are the early symptoms? If you had it, it would be good to be able to bail out before the agonizing death.

Because the soil is alive,various,intricate, and because it processes yield
more readily to imitation than to analysis,more readily to care than to coercian, agricultur can never be an exact science.
There is an inescapable kinship between farming and art, for farming depends as much on character,devotion and imagination,
and the sense of structure, as on knowledge. It is a practical art.
But it is also a practical religion, a practice of religion, a rite.
By farming we enact a fundamental connection with energy and matter, light and darkness.In the cycles of farming,which carry the elemental
energies through the season and the bodies of living things,we recognize the only infinitude within the reach of the imagination.
by aligning ourselves with it here, in our little time within the unimaginable time of the sun's burning, we touch infinity;we align
ourselves with the universal law that brought the cycles into being and will survive them.

Found a video of the first victim who died.

She was the director of an organization called LITA (Love is the answer), and apparently lived in the UK in 1990 when the large outbreak of mad cow disease occured.

Ok, time to go Vegan! But if it lies dormant then I am screwed! But what if it is not dormant, then I need to go Vegan! Or enjoy the time I have left! Ah hell, enjoy life all this is crazy, can't dodge all the bullets at the same time!

Symptoms

Blurred vision (sometimes)

Changes in gait (walking)

Confusion, disorientation

Dementia that occurs over a few weeks or months

Hallucinations

Lack of coordination (for example, stumbling and falling)

Muscle stiffness

Muscle twitching

Myoclonic jerks or seizures

Nervous, jumpy feelings

Personality changes

Sleepiness

Speech impairment

the problem is you lose your mind first, so probably wouldn't have the wherewithall to end things on your own terms.

The sad thing about these patients is that they are in such agony, with such fear in their eyes, and if you try to comfort them, it only seems to make it worse.

No way! That coincides with the angry chickens in Missouri!

Don't want to eat fish anymore because of fukishima, don't eat pork , what they want to do with chickens and now beef. I live 20 miles from Marin.

By "bail out" you mean "Spare your friends and family the pain" of watching you, their loved one, degenerate into a twitching mass of incoherence as your brain shuts down?

Sorry, this desease mimicks many other curable deseases in it's early stages versus other well known deseases. Read through the symptoms and you will get it. Its probably the most insidious desease that anyone could manufacture.

Symptoms
•Blurred vision (sometimes)

•Changes in gait (walking)

•Confusion, disorientation

•Dementia that occurs over a few weeks or months

•Hallucinations

•Lack of coordination (for example, stumbling and falling)

•Muscle stiffness

•Nervous, jumpy feelings

•Personality changes

•Speech impairment


The disease can only be confirmed with a brain biopsy or autopsy.

If you want to really be safe, become a vegetarian or raise your own meat. Maybe Titor WAS right.

This thread is a hypochondriac's banquet.

Here is some back-up for you.

Copper Helps Control Deadly Prion Protein Infection
[link to www.copper.org]

My father told me years ago, before his death, that Mad Cow disease has already infected a large part of the population and was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off.

He said that the incubation period can last for up to 25 to 30 years or more.

Why does that matter? He was a molecular biologist specialising in diseases of the brain contracted through food and water. He worked for the RPC in Canada.

Most of his work was classified and his research was paid for by both the US and Canadian taxpayer.

Copper is about to become THE precious metal. Maybe. ;)

Was one Pelosi ?? I've always thought something was wrong with her.

Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease is not Bovine spongiform encephalopathy. I cannot understand why you make the two one with your sill thinking title. My guess some people have nothing better to do.

You got a brain, use it.

Shut the fuck up you tool. BSE is not an opportunity for you to exercise your tediously prdictable and facile commentary.

for some it could be purely astinishing straight from when it happened you just yep the fact are there!

And so it begins...

Gold, silver, copper and a whole host of other trace metals play an important part in electronics and any could be a good investment if you can afford them after other areas more critical survival areas concerning food are well stocked.

If the economy collapses, or our food supply disrupted then what might the value of a pound of salt, beans or heirloom seeds might become so I would not worry too much about having a bounty of precious metals.

Mad Cow Disease: Stop the Madness!

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD): A human TSE. The classic form of CJD appears to arise spontaneously, but the so-called "new variant" of CJD (nvCJD) is now known to be the human equivalent of mad cow disease thought to be contracted by eating contaminated beef.

New study finds that mad cow disease can be transmitted through the air

A shocking new study has found that mad cow disease can be transmitted through the air. Prior to the study, it was believed that humans could only be infected through consumption of food products from infected cows, contaminated surgical instruments or blood transfusions. The new findings raise serious questions about airborne transmission risks, particularly among people who work in science labs and meat and animal feed facilities.

Mad cow disease is the popular term for "bovine spongiform encephalopathy" (BSE), a fatal neurodegenerative disease in cattle that causes a spongy degeneration in the brain and spinal cord. The disease is transmitted by tiny micro-organisms known as prions. Five known human prion diseases exist, including Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, as well as six non-human diseases, including scrapie, chronic wasting disease and mad cow disease (which sometimes jumps to humans through contaminated meat).

I TRIED TO TELL YOU HOPELESS FOOLS.

CIVIL WAR SOON.


AND DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE ASSASSINATION OF THE NEW ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

YOU KNOW WHO HE IS.

GOT MY IBM AND I'M OUTTA HERE.

I just had a big juicy burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, melted swiss and avocado.

Mmmmmm

Quote from op's article:
"Laboratory tests have ruled out mad cow-related disease, called variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob, in one of the Marin County cases. The other case is still under investigation but public health officials suspect it, too, is unrelated to mad cow disease."

Blatant alarmist fear mongering.......your title is wrong and misleading......a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
I would suggest doing some more indepth research before posting false info!
