April 9, 200521 yr source: the Edmonton Journal http://www.canada.com/edmonton/edmontonjou...a1-71bf85d17c26 Thursday, April 07, 2005 EDMONTON - A former American government packing plant veterinarian says the United States government is hiding cases of mad cow disease. Dr. Lester Friedlander said Wednesday that colleagues with the United States Department of Agriculture have told him of cases that the USDA has chosen not to announce. ... "You've found four cases (including a cow from Alberta discovered in Washington state with the disease) out of 12 million cattle and the United States has found none out of 120 million," Friedlander said in an interview during a speaking visit to Edmonton. He said production practices in the two countries are similar enough that the USDA should be finding more BSE cases. Hey, whatever's good for business.
April 10, 200521 yr Hey, so every packing plant around the world should have the same number as Canada? When there was on outbreak in England, I didn't read Canadian inspectors saying their inspections were lax because they should have the same as England? Didn't the US inspectors find some first and make in public?
