01/02/2004 Archived Entry: "A doctor's op-ed on mad cow disease"

VERY INFO-RICH OP-ED IN THE WASHINGTON TIMES on why prions (the "rogue" proteins responsible for mad cow disease, aka BSE) are a particularly dangerous disease transmitter and why even the new, improved U.S. ag practices may leave us in grave danger of an insideous disease that can take decades to reveal itself. Written by an M.D. with expertise in BSE.
