"We all remember the very serious consequences caused by ‘mad cow’ disease, a striking example of how often the desire to grow rich as quickly as possible overrides everything, until it ends, in this case, with extremely serious consequences in both health and economic terms.
We should remember the numerous cases of human deaths, such was the crisis in the bovine meat sector. Having changed the habits of herbivorous animals is an example of how human nature much more readily identifies with unbounded profiteering. It is true that cases of TSE/BSE in the European Union have fallen considerably in recent years and that is significant proof of the effective prevention measures undertaken during this period.
However, I fully agree with the rapporteur when she states that, considering the seriousness of the phenomenon, control and surveillance measures must, if anything, be strengthened. As such, I fully agree with the need to foster research in those areas where knowledge remains incomplete Only in this way can future policy decisions be made and justified and public health be protected in the global system."@en1
