Atypical BSE case reported in Switzerland
Switzerland has reported a case of atypical bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in a farm cow, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) said on Wednesday. The disease was detected in a 13-year-old cow on a farm in Einsiedeln, OIE said, citing a report from the Swiss Federal Veterinary Office.
This was the first case of BSE, commonly known as mad cow disease, since 2012, the OIE said. In October 2018, a similar incident was reported in Scotland, without any impact on the country's beef exports.
