Talk:Bovine spongiform encephalopathy

Treatment
According to Google, the treatment of this disease is to keep the person comfortable as possible. Does this count? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:18D:4700:2D30:F081:D1F8:E30B:583D (talk) 20:25, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * "According to Google" never counts. However we should be able to find a Reliable source for the same statement. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 14:33, 6 February 2024 (UTC).

Frequency?
Frequency: "4 cases (2017)" is wholly misleading, and contrary to the table showing European case numbers on the same page. This should be revised, or deleted.

 * "Bovine spongiform encephalopathy", about 45,200 results
