Mad Cow Disease in Canada.

[Guest guest]

The Canadian veterinarian in Alberta made the following comment to the media

about a cow testing positive for the prion disease:

" We've taken this particular sample and elevated the sample to a suspect

case, based on the fact that we have multiple, consistent non-negative

findings, " Little, senior veterinarian with the CFIA, told reporters in

Ottawa. "

Which of you attorneys advised this vet to say multiple non-negative

findings? Does that not translate to, " The damned cow tested positive every

time we tested her. We will keep testing until we get a negative which, of

course, is a non-positive test
