I heard an interview on npr yesterday with a woman who's heard was
infected and destroyed in Wales.  Made me cry, the description of the
cattle and her loss.

Does anyone out there know what the disease is and why after so  many
years of being around there has not been a successful treatment or
inoculation developed?

Thanks,

Trisha
