We have talked about mad cow disease in the past, now the deer version has spread to Wisconsin. I would submit that if the local deer have it, discovery in cattle cannot be far behind. This may have implications for one of my fav stocks to short, MCD. channel3000.com

Canada Reports First DEATH from New Variant of CJD>> YIKES!!!! Thu Aug 8,10:56 AM ET WINNIPEG, Manitoba (Reuters) - A Canadian man has died of new variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD), the human strain of mad cow disease, Health Canada officials said on Thursday. The victim, who died in a hospital at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, likely contracted the disease in Britain, said Andrew Swift, a spokesman for the federal health department. "Health Canada has received confirmation of the first case of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease recorded in Canada," Swift said. "However all evidence points to the patient having acquired the disease in the United Kingdom. There is no evidence to suggest that Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy commonly known as BSE has entered the Canadian food supply." New variant CJD is a fatal disease. Scientists believe it is contracted by eating beef infected with mad cow disease. There have been about 115 cases of new variant CJD in Europe.
