Watch Mad Cow Disease: The Great British Beef Scandal online. Maybe available on Youtube, Netflix, PrimeVideo, Hulu, Disney and other legal streaming platforms.

The story of Britain’s biggest ever food scandal. Since 1996, almost 200 people have died from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, whilst BSE has been responsible for the death of over four million cows. It has cost the NHS over a billion pounds and virtually destroyed the British beef industry in the 1990s. A story of greed, corruption and catastrophic political misjudgement by the then Conservative government can be found beneath the statistics. This film pieces together a forgotten chapter of our recent history, with access to all of the politicians, scientists and families who have been defined by this epidemic.
