Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in Canada [Mad Cow Disease]
One person has died and two others remain gravely ill in hospital with the rare neurological disorder often linked to bovine spongiform encephalopathy, better known as mad cow disease.
One case of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, a rare, degenerative brain disease has been confirmed in British Columbia's Fraser Valley, and a health official says two other cases are now suspected. The patients did not get sick from eating contaminated beef and are not linked to mad cow disease.
