For those who know nothing about polluted American beef

I would like to tell the fact to those who know nothing about a fear for polluted beef.
I work for a Japanese food service company. I am in charge of Public Relations and one of my most important missions is to educate people who know nothing about the risk of BSE, or mad cow decease.
According to the latest medical report once abnormal prion which causes BSE is accumulated in the body, especially in the brain, vacant spaces are produced within the brain of the cow and the brain becomes sponge-like. As for human body, almost the same symptom is noticed. It is called 'variant CJD'.
In the U.S., as far as I know, more than twenty people were reported to have died of 'vCJD' like the case in U.K. but the fact had never been announced by the government. As you may be aware the livestock industry is very strong in the U.S. It is the fundamental of Bush administration. That's why the government still is concealing the BSE facts and almost nobody knows about it in the U.S.
Such tragedy was caused by feeding healthy cows with meat-and-bone meal. This feed is nutritious and effective for quick raising but once BSE infected materials are mixed it will spread the awful decease.
It is true that it is prohibited to feed meat-and-bone meal to cows in the U.S. but still is being fed to other cattle and pets. The fact that dangerous meat-and-bone meal still exist means that the risk still remains. Who can completely isolate meat-and-bone meal from cow's meal in a farm? They will easily be mixed together.
That's why our company emphasizes the importance of banning feeding live-cattle materials to all kinds of cattle. But the U.S. government still has no plan to do so.

As you may be aware, Japan has eased the trade ban for American beef last June after more than two years of banning since the BSE infected cow was found in the U.S. Some of Japanese food service companies have started again to use it but our company policy is not to use American beef until the safety is guaranteed by a blanket test, banning feeding cattle materials and the complete removal of specified risky materials.
I don't want to say all the beef is dangerous. But to eat American beef is something like Russian roulette as for now. Some will die, some will survive. Anyway you will know the result more than ten years after.
