Currently, there is no reliable way to test for BSE in a live cow. After a cow dies, scientists can tell if it had BSE by looking at its brain tissue under a microscope and seeing the spongy appearance. Scientists can also tell if a cow had BSE by using test kits that can detect the abnormal prion in the brain.
It has never been unsafe to eat beef in England.
There is no cure for variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). Treatment includes managing the symptoms that occur as the disease gets worse.
This is consistent with the time between when someone is exposed to a prion disease and when they develop one themselves. As BSE has been largely eradicated, it is not thought to pose much risk to people currently.
While control measures have made BSE less common and vCJD is very rare, its hard to diagnose and theres no treatment for the disease, which is fatal.
