I get the craving sometimes. I think "Mmm, sounds so good, but I know how I'll feel later..." I eat it and sure enough, guess what? Gut bomb!
Kinda like binge drinking - know you'll feel like crap but do it anyway... |

Perhaps you missed the part of the article about how we don't even know the incubation period of vCJD-causing prions. the alleged cause of BSE and vCJD, cannibalistic husbandry practices, is a relatively recent phenomenon. Add to the fact that there isn't even a diagnostic test available that can detect the presence of prions in a living person, there could possibly be many more carriers with dormant prions in their system. thus it's easy to see why you cannot treat the number of confirmed cases as any reliable indicator of anything, let alone using them to substantiate a claim such as burgers pose "little risk."
the risks of contracting vCJD through the food chain isn't high or low, it's unknown. That's science. |

And yet, there have been only a handful of diagnosed cases in North America. Millions of people eating meat every day. The facts on the ground look pretty good versus a nebulous possibility prions have some long incubation period and we're all going to wake up one day with vCJD. |

| What's it like to have vCJD? I guess i's the same as having CJD. Since a lot more of us are likely (or maybe not, nobody really knows...) to have it in 10 years or so, does anyone have a link to some case studies? |
