Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, the scientific name for mad cow disease) is caused by an infectious misfolded protein called a prion. The prion gains entrance into the body through the small intestines and tonsils, then travels to the central nervous system. The prion does not start in the bones and does not generally affect the bones.
Mad Cow is not a virus or bacterial infection like a cold or flu is that comes about as a seasonal thing. It is caused by a prion, and the chances that humans will contract Mad Cow is extremely low; there is no season that people can "start getting" Mad Cow disease.
