Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare and fatal brain disorder, primarily occurring spontaneously or through genetic mutations. However, a variant form known as vCJD has been linked to consuming beef products contaminated with the prion responsible for bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or "mad cow disease." While the risk of contracting vCJD from eating meat is extremely low, it is primarily associated with beef products from cattle that were infected. Proper food safety measures and regulations have significantly reduced this risk.
