Health | Furthermore, BSE has never been found in the United States, and importation of cattle and beef from countries with BSE has been banned in the United States since 1989 to reduce the risk that it will occur in this country. (references) | |
The appearance of the new variant of CJD (nv-CJD or v-CJD) in several younger than average people in Great Britain and France has led to concern that BSE may be transmitted to humans through consumption of contaminated beef. Although laboratory tests have shown a strong similarity between the prions causing BSE and v-CJD, there is no direct proof to support this theory. (references) | ||
Economic History | Poland | BSE and foot and mouth concerns. (references) |
Norway | The reason might be the bad publicity around BSE. (references) | |
Lebanon | In October 2000, the BSE instituted computerized continuous trading. (references) | |
Political Economy | POLAND | Poland also banned imports of gelatin of bovine origin from all countries in February 2001 because of BSE concerns. (references) |
POLAND | Previously, Poland had annually imported upwards of 300,000 tons of MBM valued at $100 million, virtually all from the EU. Poland refused to permit imports of U.S. MBM as an alternative, despite the fact that the United States has no reported cases of BSE, unless U.S. MBM undergoes more costly heat and pressure treatments outlined in European Commission decision 96/449/EC. (references) | |
CZECH REPUBLIC | U.S. exporters of beef, poultry, pork and horsemeat are not able to ship to the Czech Republic due to concerns about special risk materials shared by the EU. In November 2000, reacting to the EU BSE outbreak, the Czech State Veterinary Administration prohibited specific risks' materials usage in pet food, and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) cannot guarantee that U.S. pet food producers meet this requirement. (references) | |
Trade | Romania | An over-the-counter (OTC) securities market, designed to complement the BSE through the effects of the privatization process, opened in September 1996 with assistance from the U.S. Agency for International Development. (references) |
Romania | This market, whose acronym is RASDAQ (Romanian Association of Securities Dealers Automatic Quotation), provides capital for shares of firms (including both newly privatized and other companies) that are unable to meet the more stringent listing requirements of the BSE. (references) | |
Thailand | Phytosanitary standards continue to be a source of concern for the United States . For example, Thailand requires certification that the U.S. is free of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) . Although trade has not been significantly affected to date, Thailand wants the U.S. to provide a statement of specific rendering procedures used in order to determine that these procedures are sufficient to inactivate the BSE agent in such products as meat and bone meal which is used for animal feed and in manufacturing pet food.
