Default S. Korea curbs U.S. beef sales after confirmation of mad cow disease

Quote:
The first U.S. case of mad cow disease in six years sparked fears of illness that prompted at least one major South Korean retailer to suspend the sale of American beef.
Quote:
However, public health officials said the risk for disease for Americans is extremely low given that the affected dairy cow in central California was not part of the human food chain and was not exposed to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) through animal feed.
hmmm...wonder about the way it passes through to the milk...

Quote:
"A case of a single cow with bovine spongiform encephalopathy is not a reason for significant concern on the part of consumers, and there is no reason to believe the beef or milk supply is unsafe," she said.
Thank you, I'll be doing the veggie thing for awhile.
