They're French how are we going to be able to tell the difference without an autopsy.

This is sad -
Remember it's not the everyday citizen of France who acts against the cause of freedom. It's the radical part and the government radicals. And never forget what happened under Clinton - and the tainted blood that went to Canada - it almost always ends up harming the innocent ones - whenever a government becomes corrupt - no matter the nation -
just my thoughts -

Since France is the first islamic european country, the donor was a crack addicted islamic.

No. It is the everyday citizen of France who acts against the cause of freedom. France is an enemy of the United States. It's citizens are enemies of the United States. Plain and simple.

Seriously though,I was not aware that Jacobs or Mad cow can definitively be transmitted via blood. The disease seems confined to the nerve tissue. The only way they verify it is via autopsy of the affected areas.
I suppose everyone will freak out anyway, and there will be a new/new minister of health.:-)

When it's found in humans, is one of the symptoms thickening of blood??

To lump a whole nation's citizens together and to put them all down does not make sense.
Common sense that is - in my opinion -
But you can say what you want - that is your right -

Have to agree, this is no cause for rejoicing. It's a tragic situation.
