Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as mad cow disease, was first detected in the mid-1980s in the United Kingdom. The initial cases were reported in cattle in the southwestern region of England, leading to widespread concerns about food safety and animal health. The disease is attributed to the feeding of cattle with feed containing infected animal byproducts. Its emergence had significant implications for the beef industry and public health policies worldwide.

Is mad cow disease in Europe?

Mad cow disease is known scientifically as bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or BSE for short. The disease was first identified in the United Kingdom and spread to many countries in Europe before it was understood. However, since the mid-1990s, most countries have instituted preventive measures to stop the spread of BSE and cases of BSE are now quite rare. I would expect within the next 10 years or so for the world to be declared free of BSE, and the incidence of BSE in Europe today (2011) is very low.
