U.S. denies having 2 BSE cases in 1997
Last Updated Thu, 14 Apr 2005 10:24:15 EDT
CBC News  http://cbc.ca
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Department of Agriculture admits there were problems with the samples taken from two cows in 1997, but insists the animals did not have bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad cow disease.


INDEPTH: Mad Cow Disease

Asked about a CBC News report showing the samples used for testing did not contain key parts of the animals' brains needed to make an accurate diagnosis, the USDA's Ron DeHaven said, "We had two choices: run the tests with the samples that we had, or not run them at all.

DeHaven is the administrator of the USDA's animal and plant health inspection service.

"If we had something to hide, we could make an argument for not running the samples at all," he said. "In this case, we chose to run the samples with the tissues that we had and subject them to three different tests to compensate for the fact that we may not have the perfect tissues."

For years Canadian cattle producers have been suspicious about U.S. claims that it has only found one cow that has been affected with BSE. That cow, which originated in Canada, was diagnosed with BSE in December 2003 in Washington state.

So far, four Canadian-born animals have tested positive even though for decades animals have been shipped back and forth across the border.

CBC News has uncovered U.S. Department of Agriculture video showing what USDA veterinarians feared might be two cases of mad cow disease in the U.S.


FROM APRIL 12, 2005: Concerns raised about 1997 U.S. mad cow tests

The official tests were negative. But CBC news uncovered documents showing key areas of the cow's brain, in both cases, were never tested.

Retired USDA scientist Dr. Karl Langheinrich says without those tests, American authorities will never be able to rule out mad cow disease. "It means you cannot make a diagnosis, a specific diagnosis," he said.

Rob McNabb of the Canadian Cattlemen's Association says his organization wants the USDA to investigate.

"What we would fully expect is that the USDA address the allegations," he said.

And NDP international trade critic Peter Julian says Canada should consider retaliating.

"I think we need to close the border immediately to beef imports," he said.

One of the USDA's top officials told CBC News that the U.S. testing program was never designed to catch every single case of mad cow disease. It was simply meant to measure how much disease there is.

After testing thousands of animals the USDA believes if BSE exists, it's at a very low level.

Next year, the U.S. plans a major reduction in its BSE testing program, from a high of 300,000 animals to just 40,000.

Courage of Dr. Doi, American Whistleblower
Concerns raised about 1997 U.S. mad cow tests
Last Updated Apr 13 2005 02:30 PM CDT
CBC News
GENEVA, N.Y. v The United States did not properly analyze two suspected cases of mad cow disease in 1997, years before it showed up in Canada and devastated this country's beef industry, a CBC News investigation suggests.

INDEPTH: Mad Cow Disease

Dr. Masuo Doi, the U.S. Department of Agriculture veterinarian who initially investigated both 1997 cases, says he is haunted by fears that the right tests were not done and that his own department did not properly investigate whether the cow had BSE.

Doi is now retired and speaking for the first time about his concerns.

"I don't want to carry on off to my retirement," he told CBC's Investigative Unit. "I want to hand it over to someone to continue, to find out. I think it's very, very important ...

"How many did we miss?"

Doi's concerns are echoed by Dr. Karl Langheindrich, the chief scientist at a U.S. Department of Agriculture lab in Athens, Ga., that ran the early tests on one of the cows.

Documents obtained by CBC show that the samples tested by the department did not contain parts of the animal's brain critical for an accurate diagnosis.

Langheindrich told CBC that the department will never be able to say for sure what was wrong with the cow, though at the time it publicly ruled out bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

"Based on the clinical symptoms and the description given by the veterinarian, you can verify, yes, this animal had CNS, central nervous system disease, but you can't specify it in your findings further than that," he said.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is refusing to talk about the cases, saying the documents provided to CBC speak for themselves.

1997 video from New York shows stricken cow

The scientists' comments raise new questions about how the U.S. industry has been able to essentially escape BSE when Canada's much smaller industry, observing almost identical safety and testing practices, has had four cases in the past two years.

Part of the answer could be in a slaughterhouse in Oriskany Falls, N.Y., which eight years ago may have become the home of the first American case of mad cow.

Bobby Godfrey, who worked at the plant, remembers a cow that arrived one day in May 1997.

"I thought it was a mad dog, to tell you the truth," he told CBC. "Didn't know what the hell it was. Never seen a cow act like that in all the cows I saw go through there. There was definitely something wrong with it."

The suspect cow was recorded on USDA videotape, which has been obtained by CBC News. It shows the animal trembling, hunching its back and charging plant workers.

"Me and my vet, including our inspector, they thought [the cow] was quite different," Doi told CBC. "They thought it was the BSE."

Key areas of brain not tested: documents

Documents obtained by CBC News show that the U.S. government was preparing for the worst. Initial signs pointed to its first case of mad cow disease, which would have immediate impacts on U.S. beef exports to countries around the world.

But further tests on the animal came back negative, the USDA later reported.


Dr. Masuo Doi, a retired USDA veterinarian.
The final conclusion from an independent university lab: The cow had a rare brain disorder never reported in that breed of cattle either before or since v not the dreaded bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

CBC News has now learned that key areas of the brain where signs of BSE would be most noticeable were never tested. The most important samples somehow went missing.

That information was contained in a USDA lab report that was left out of the documents officially released by the department. It proves that the scientist in charge of the case knew his investigation was limited because of the missing brain tissue.

Second suspected case surfaces at same plant

With questions about the first cow still lingering, a second American cow showed up at the same plant three months later with suspicious symptoms. Videotape of that animal shows its head was bobbing and it was unable to rise to its feet, setting off warning bells for mad cow disease.

The second cow's brain was also sent for testing. Officials were later told verbally that the samples had tested negative for BSE.

Doi made repeated requests for documentary proof of the negative tests. To this day, he has seen nothing.

"How many are buried?" he wonders of other possible cases of BSE in the United States. "Can you really trust our inspection [system]?"

For weeks, the USDA told CBC that it had no records for the second cow suspected of having BSE in 1997. Then just a few days ago, it suddenly produced documents that it says proves that a cow was tested and that the tests were negative for mad cow disease.

But the documents also prove, once again, that there were problems with the testing. This time, so much brain tissue was missing that it compromised the examination.

The problems were so severe that one USDA scientist wrote that his own examination was of "questionable validity" because he couldn't tell what part of the cow's brain he was looking at.

Felicia Nestor, a lawyer who represents U.S. government whistle-blowers, says she isn't surprised by what this CBC News investigation uncovered.

"There have been too many times where information or tissues or other evidence has just sort of disappeared, fallen through the cracks," said Nestor, who has been handling USDA-related cases for nearly 10 years.

"There are a lot of holes. There are a lot of holes."

Commons committee hears coverup allegations

The results of the CBC investigation were broadcast on the same day that a former U.S. agriculture inspector, during testimony at a House of Commons committee, accused his own government of covering up suspected cases of BSE.

On Tuesday, Lester Friedlander repeated a claim he has made before v that cases of BSE surfaced in the U.S. long before the disease showed up in Canada.

Friedlander, who was fired from his job as head of inspections at a meat-packing plant in Philadelphia in 1995 after criticizing what he called unsafe practices, says he is willing to take a lie detector test to prove he is telling the truth.

The U.S. government has denied his allegations.
