However, the odds of you being infected with the BSE prion is very very small, as there are very few cases of BSE in cattle around the world and the human population has not been exposed to them in years.
Signs of vCJD (the human version of BSE) include weakness, particularly of just one limb or a part of the body; difficulty with coordinating activities like walking or writing; jumbled thoughts or speech; changes in personality such as becoming more aggressive or becoming more passive and docile; loss of logical reasoning skills or abstract conceptualization; etc.

Mad Cow Disease is a layman's term for Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy.
Mad cow disease happens when the proteins in the brain of cow become misfolded. This is called prion. In simple words all proteins have to be folded before they can function and when some proteins in the brain become misfolded, such a state is called prions (misfolding of proteins) and it results in mad cow disease.

It's not sad cow disease, it's MAD cow disease. Its a brain disease that can cause irrational behavior in cows.
People do not get Mad Cow Disease. No human can get mad cow disease but humans can be infected by eating meat from a contaminated cow that has mad cow disease. The disease in people that has been associated with humans is called variant Creutzfeldt Jakob disease (vCJD) that is also a progressive fatal neurological disease.
