Possible alignment of the EU BSE surveillance with the new WOAH provisions

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The European Commission requested the assessment of the capacity of the surveillance provisions of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to detect bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) cases (C‐, H‐ and L‐type) in the European Union (EU) and to propose if any current EU surveillance provisions should be kept.

The worst is yet to come: probable sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease in a well-controlled HIV patient

Prion, 2019
We describe a case of probable sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease in the setting of well-controlled HIV and discuss whether exist, in fact, HIV-related factors that may predispose to the development of prion disease. To the best of our knowledge, this is

Strain Traits of Intracranially Administered L‐Type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Prions Are not Significantly Modified During Intraspecies Transmission in Cynomolgus Monkeys

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 166-174, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Among the three prion strains of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), classical BSE (C‐BSE) prions are known causative agents of variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease. By contrast, human infections with L‐type (L‐) or H‐type (H‐) BSE prions have not been reported.

The new variant of the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease accounts for no relative increase of the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease mortality rate in the United Kingdom; this fits ill with the new variant being the consequence of consumption of food infected with the agent of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy

BMC Public Health, 2003
Background A new variant of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease was described in the United Kingdom. It is often claimed that it is caused by consumption of food infected with the agent of bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
