 It's not the amount of people that have already died. It's supposed to be the
number of contaminated but yet not ill people that seems more worrysome.
Heard it can take up to 30 years before a person may develop symptons.
An estimation was that in the UK around 30.000 people carried the prions with
them.
Saw an interesting documentary a while ago about canibals that used to eat
their enemies. After a while of doing so they only gave the brains to the
children and women. They said it could make people weak. An investigation
showed there had been one person with Creuztveld-Jacob who turned into a snack
for the tribe. Since then they learned that eating the brains was not a good
idea.
