Inc.'s Product Safety Statement
What
is BSE?
BSE is a degenerative neurological disease caused by an aberrant
protein called a prion. It is in the family of diseases—all caused by prions—referred
to as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, or TSEs. TSEs include scrapie
in sheep and goats, chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer and elk, and
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or CJD, in humans.
It’s important to note that TSEs are not communicable diseases—they do not
spread easily like viruses.
How
is BSE spread in cattle?
Cattle can become infected with BSE by eating feed contaminated with
the infectious BSE agent. This is why in 1997 the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration prohibited the use of most mammalian protein in the manufacture
of animal feed intended for cows and other ruminants. For more information on
the feed ban, please visit the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s website
at www.fda.gov.
What does the detection mean for U.S. beef exports?
In accordance with international trade agreements, USDA has notified
the international animal health governing body, the OIE, of the presumptive
positive BSE detection.
At the time of this posting, 11 U.S. trading partners, including, among
others, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and Mexico, have suspended imports of U.S.
beef and beef products. USDA officials will be working to provide U.S. trading
partners and international animal health officials with information regarding
the steps being taken in response to the detection.
How does BSE affect humans?
A fatal TSE affecting humans, variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD),
is believed to be caused by eating neural tissue, such as brain and spinal
cord, from BSE-affected cattle. For this reason, USDA requires that all
nervous system materials be removed from downer cattle identified at U.S.
slaughter facilities. These specified risk materials are removed, sent to
rendering facilities, and do not enter U.S. food supply channels. We believe
this practice effectively safeguards U.S. public health from vCJD.
Having said that, it is important to clarify the differences between variant
CJD and another form of the disease, referred to as classic CJD. Classic CJD
occurs each year at a rate of 1 to 2 cases per 1 million people throughout the
world, including in the United States and other countries where BSE has never
occurred. It is not linked to the consumption of neural tissue from BSE-affected
cattle—both vegetarians and meat eaters have died from classic CJD.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), no
cases of variant CJD have been identified in the United States, the form of
the disease linked to eating neural tissue from BSE-affected cattle.
