Massive recall. Too late. You're going
to die. Horribly. Too soon.

Tiny recall. Minicsule chance of BSE. Still, it's not over-reacting to be
better safe than sorry. Prions are nasty things.

That's one reason I usually buy grass fed, grass finished beef. The
gf-gf beef I get is local also.

I thought that was the only kind WFs sold? I don't really know. It's not
my go to place for meat but I did buy some once or twice. Pretty sure what
I bought was grass fed.

It takes years for variant CJD to develop in people
who eat infected beef, so it should be no surprise
that nobody has developed symptoms from the bad batch
sold this year.

No, that's not the only kind of meat they sell. As a matter of fact,
it's a small portion of the meat counter.

Do these cattle have contact with local wild deer?

Oh. I've only ever bought the packaged. The meat counter always seems very
busy.

http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/vcjd/factsheet_nvcjd.htm
"The incubation period for vCJD is unknown because it is a new
disease. However, it is likely that ultimately this incubation period
will be measured in terms of many years or decades. In other words,
whenever a person develops vCJD from consuming a BSE-contaminated
product, he or she likely would have consumed that product many years
or a decade or more earlier."

Probably because mad cow disease takes a few years to be diagnosed in
humans.
