[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 62708, member: 97"] Dr. George Luterbach from the CFIA said while the feed is being studied as a possible source of the infection, there could be another explanation. "A theoretical possibility is the transmission from a mother, late in the disease, to her offspring," said Luterbach. Frenchie- I took this from a Canadian story about the latest Alberta cow-- Were you aware that it was transmissable from cow to cow or cow to calf? This is the first I've heard of this theory.... Thats the problem there are more theories on cause, how transmitted, infection rates, and detection than there have been cases.....Japan claims they have found BSE in under 30 month cattle- 20+ month olds.....The "sound science" of BSE is not very sound.... We need to find a lot more out about this disease before we start dropping barriers and weakening restrictions........ [/QUOTE]
