Is this a cover up of Mad Cow Disease, No one will answer what the cause is,
just to say diseased cows not fit for human consumption.

Why are they referring us to health care providers ???

9 million lbs of beef recall,

The USDA notice said the suspect meat was sold to companies in California, Florida, Illinois and Texas. But on Monday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture expanded the recall to include stores and processors in Oregon and Washington.


The USDA FSIS advised that anyone who may be concerned with illnesses as a result of this tainted beef should consult with their health care provider.

Hard to say - sure sounds like a cause for concern.

No it's not. The recall was because the meat was not subject to full inspection and is therefore adulterated by law whether or not anything is wrong with it or not. To date, there have been zero reported incidents of illness due to this. To speculate that a) the recall was caused by mad cow disease and b) thousands of people are now involved in a massive coverup without a single shred of evidence to support either speculation is a bit odd.

Read what was said by the USDA

The USDA FSIS advised that anyone who may be concerned with illnesses as a result of this tainted beef should consult with their health care provider.


What more evidence do you need ; And what reason would they have to advise you to consult with a health care provider.

Anyone complacent should ignore the warning and go out to a ball game and have a couple of HOT DOGS.

It is a Class 1 recall, but if you look at what was shipped out, you probably haven't consumed any if you don't buy any processed meat products. "Mad cow disease" technically, variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, is not caused by eating muscle meat from a cow....nerve tissue I must be eaten.

Of course, any agency would suggest you speak with a health professional if you have concerns about possible illness.
