That's a natural disease so the answer is yes.
In humans it is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) and it is a degenerative neurological disorder that is both incurable and fatal. Transmission of CJD from animals to humans is rare, but not unheard of.
Once neurologic symptoms of variant Creutzfeldt-Jacobs Disease (vCJD) start, the disease generally progresses to a fatal stage within 5-10 years.
It takes 2 to 8 years for the BSE prion to complete incubation before it starts affecting the animal.
100 % of all humans that receive mad cow disease die from it. Same with cows.
Usually about 6 months to 1 year after the symptoms start showing. But in the final stages, the patient is in a coma.
Not all that common. Ratio is around 1 in 1 000 000.

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.
She had Bright's disease and Mad Cow disease.
Yes, that is precisely how you contract mad cow.
It's not sad cow disease, it's MAD cow disease. Its a brain disease that can cause irrational behavior in cows.
