WASHINGTON - Authorities have quarantined a third herd of Washington state cattle in a widening investigation of mad cow disease after they located another cow from the same Canadian herd as the infected cow.
At least some cows quarantined since the discovery last month of a Holstein with the brain-wasting disease will be destroyed, either because of possible exposure to the infection or to quell public fear, Dr. Ron DeHaven, the Agriculture Department's chief veterinarian, said Friday.

And they are STILL trying to pin this on Canada. It's the old magicians trick of redirected attention to the other hand. What I want to know is what measures are in place for the cattle that are on their way to the slaughter house TODAY, NOW.
They are still waiting on the DNA tests to come back on that first bossy.
