16th Case of Mad Cow Found in Canada

Canadia’s Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has confirmed it had found it’s 16th case of Mad Cow Disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy or BSE) in a 7-year-old dairy cow from British Columbia.

The Meating Place web site said (no link – subscribers only):

Canada remains a Controlled Risk country for BSE, as determined by OIE, and so this announcement should not affect exports of cattle or beef from the country.

According to OIE, Canada has had 16 native-born cases of BSE: two in 2003, one each in 2004 and 2005, five cases in 2006, three in 2007 and four so far in 2008. Canada also had an imported case of BSE in 1993.

The agency reported that no part of the cow had entered the food chain.
