"Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE) include serious diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy, which reached an epidemic scale in the EU in the mid-1990s because of the feeding of contaminated processed animal protein to cattle. This disease is orally transferable to humans, and takes the form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, which leads to the deterioration of brain tissue and, eventually, death.
Following the epidemic of the 1990s and the resulting social alarm, innumerable measures have been taken in the EU to control the spread of BSE, which have been very successful and have led to a real decline in the disease. However, the success of the measures taken should not lead us to relax controls and preventative measures, but rather to understand the importance of these measures and to keep them up, as well as to review them and adapt them appropriately to the present situation."@en1
