Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare and fatal brain disorder, primarily occurring spontaneously or through genetic mutations.

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.
