- In light of the potentially catastrophic spread of Mad
Cow/nvCJD prions worldwide (UN WHO statement) throughout the food chain
and environment, and my continuing call for completely new, mandatory universal
medical/dental sterilization protocols - including the absolute cessation
of the reuse of all invasive instruments and equipment - this incredible
list will come as quite a surprise to many.
-
- I've broken most of the items down into Medical, Food,
and General/Industrial categories to facilitate a grasp of the enormity
of the use of animal products in our lives and the potential vectors of
Mad Cow/CJD prions. This categorization is not necessarily complete; there
are some consumables which are not listed in FOOD, for example, but the
general point of the list is simple: just because one doesn't eat meat
or dairy, doesn't mean one is necessarily safe from potential exposure
to Mad Cow prions and contaminated/infected products from cattle.
-
- With the recent discovery in the UK that tonsils of BSE/TSE
infected individuals contain the Mad Cow/CJD killer prions, one wonders
if other body tissues might be similar repositories. One also ponders the
ongoing and bizarre issue of mass cattle and other animal mutilations and
wonders whether this is some kind of monitoring process to track the spread
of environmental decay and toxicity...and prion diseases.

milkshakes and marshmallows...we have injected animal products from cattle,
sheep, and hogs into nearly every corner of our lives. Behold...
