This video is very interesting. Back in the early 1970's I had HGH injections 3 times a week. I had a pituitary/endocrine problem and was very tiny for my age. (I'm 65 now, Feb 2022) I also had a poor immune system, which meant if I caught a cold or any other infection, I would end up in hospital. This happened very frequently. Sometime in the late 70's I got a huge lump on my backside. It was an abscess from having the HGH injections 3 times a week. The HGH injections were immediately stopped, and I never had them again. Through my constant hospital admissions I got to know another young girl who also had the HGH injections, at the exact same times as I did. I asked her mother if she was ok, and she said no, she has CJD. We kept in touch and sometime later she sent me a letter saying her daughter had passed away. I had seen her go downhill, from being a normal young girl to becoming a vegetable. It was horrible. Around the late 80's to early 90's I received a letter from my (then) Endocrinology Specialist, telling me a bit about how CJD has been found in some HGH recipients, but I had nothing to worry about. A short time later I was visited by a Barrister who was dealing with the legal side of patients who had possibly been exposed to CJD. I was one of those patients. He was the one that said to me was I aware that I should not be a blood donor. Up until that moment I had no idea. I had not donated blood as I did not weigh enough. Things regarding CJD (here In New Zealand) were starting coming out in the media, and I did several interviews for various media, as none of the other HGH recipients here had the courage to speak out publicly. By now I had found out that morgue workers had taken out the pituitary gland of many cadavers, not knowing what they had dies from. The more they collected, the more money they were paid. They processed these to make the HGH. I have a video about it taken from a tv interview I did. It was sickening to know this, and to know that is how CJD was spreading to HGH recipients, not only here in New Zealand, but also around the world. At this time ((90's) I was told by a Professor of Endocrinology (whom I knew and had had dealings with) that CJD had an incubation period of 30 years. I was shocked. Cutting a long story short, I am fine and the 30 year incubation period has been and gone - and I am still alive! My (present) Endocrinologist casually said to me about 10 years ago that it had passed and I was fine. Such a casual throw away comment! I used to go to bed crying at night, praying that I woke up the next morning and did not have CJD. So much of what went on has been swept under the carpet here in New Zealand. Yes, I am perfectly fine now, but sometimes the memory of what I (and others) went through comes back to haunt me. Apologies this is so long, there's so much more I could say. Thanks for reading this! Stay safe everyone🙂

My uncle was a veterinary surgeon in the UK. In the mid seventies he started finding these cows that had the mad cow disease, very few at that time but he did the autopsies and survey. The disease exploded in the 80's and humans started getting it. Then 30 years later, he died of a rare form of brain disease that was never diagnosed, all the specialists he saw couldn't tell. There was no further research as my aunt had him cremated she didn't wan't all the hassle and pain of autopsy etc.

My mother died from CJD in 1984. I was six months pregnant with her 1st grandchild. We took her to numerous doctors and watched her health rapidly deteriorate. She was finally diagnosed at UCLA medical center with 1 of 5 slow viral infections of the brain. She lasted over a year and finally passed from pneumonia. After agreeing to an optosy we told she had CJD. They had no idea who or when she got it.

Vaccines can induce it. Eating meat/organs, spine that is infected. Blood transfusions. Organ transplants. Medical instruments not being sterilized when infected ( btw, cooking, sterilizing does not really work either. Even brains and biologic material infected and put in formaldehyde still contain this disease material! ). Growth hormones. Other products made of biologic material, including fetusses to make products...like vaccines and so on. Sexual contact, by fluids, kissing. Dental work with contaminated instruments. There are many ways to infect animals and people.😢

I have just began to study Decontamination Sciences in the sterile services (Surgical instrumentation). My assignment is to look at an outbreak that occurred in sterile service with patients that underwent surgery. Firstly I would like start by saying, this documentary was extremely helpful in providing facts clearly displaying what appears to be a complex disease. From my opinion when discussing CJD that is acquired from dirty surgical tools, after the tools have been used they are sent to the sterilisation department to be cleaned and sterilised for further use. However, in most cases in the UK the risk of CJD is not identified until much later after the initial procedure, meaning the surgical tools have most likely been used on other patients in the meantime. As mentioned in the video, the sterilisation procedures can not completely rid the protein. However, I defiantly think high risk procedures (neurosurgery, brain biopsy etc) the surgical tools should be quarantined until laboratory findings conclude there is no CJD risk. Only then should those tools be aloud back into circulation.

My very dear friend and colleague died of CJD in 2007. He was 37 and a hospital physician. He was born with panhypopituitrism so was dependant on HGH injections. Aged 18 he was accepted into medical school. Within a few months he received a letter from the DoH informing him that he was at risk of CJD because others who had received the same pooled batch had become infected. Imagine that. Not only living with a likely death sentence, but having intimate knowledge of how you will die and questioning every twitch or stumble.

I’m still shocked that this doctor received the Nobel Prize when two other men, Authur Carey who spent decades living with and studying the Fore tribe in Papua New Guinea, in which the disease was so prevalent, and Carleton Gajdusek, are the discoverers of the disease. It was caused by the cannibalistic practices, specifically the eating of infected brains. They even went so far as to injecting infected brain matter into otherwise healthy chimps, who later developed the disease. All the Nobel Prize winner did was label the disease. So unfair, especially to Authur.

How can I get help if my doctor won't order a test to confirm my mutations for a diagnosis?

As it explains in the video, it can be either. Some people inherent a gene for the malfunctioning protein. Some people can spontaneously have a mutation that causes it even without family history. Some people got the “variant” version from food. The protein enters the brain from the digestive system and causes increasing damage. The different types have some symptoms in common, but will look different in their early stages.

People who have CJD can't donate blood. Those who were in UK in the mid 1990s also can't give blood. This is because CJD prions infect the blood. Sexual contact can transmit blood and thus CJD also.

I find it disturbing that nowhere is it mentioned on how to help reduce the risk and chances of getting vCJD. It's blatantly obvious one should avoid consuming all animal products as most countries have no, if not pitiful prion monitoring in their animal food supply. Prions can also infect dairy products since there is blood in dairy. Most people love eating animal products too much to do the safe thing for their health to avoid them. It's taboo but it's true.
@lonewolf136910 жыл бұрын
The graph showing BSE explosion juxtaposed with vCJD incidence in the video is crystal clear evidence that vCJD is transmitted through contaminated animal food. The correlation between the two graphs in their corresponding peaks and troughs is obvious. But to confront people's dietary lifestyle and the animal food industry is unacceptable to most.

My sister died 4 yrs ago, after 4 months from CJD in the US. She was entirely a vegetarian. The ground up tainted livestock has been fed to other animals....put into fish food for farmed fish, and added to many other products. One thing most victims have in common is they work with food, in kitchens, preparation, meat cutters, and farmers, and hunters. My sister had none of these in common.
@lonewolf136910 жыл бұрын

May have been the fish, as farmed fish is fed ground up beef as you mentioned. Also in 2012 they detected a dairy cow with BSE in California, look it up. Dairy can be infectious as it contains blood. Either way, becoming a vegan is a must if one wants to avoid TSE.

When I was a dental hygienist, it was my responsibility to take medical histories and then counsel patients on their dental issues, and I started to notice a correlation between the disease and the circumstances in the person's life--what you believe is what is--in other words. Prion disease correlates to how genocides devolve, including character defamation. There is a connection, and by understanding the correlation, it is possible to find a cure.

@Karen Holmes No, but I have the ability to read and understand case studies and scientific data from the people who study prions for a living. Prion diseases and genocide have no connection whatsoever, you have to remember that correlation doesn't imply causation. Prion diseases have killed people from all walks of life - young and old, rich and poor, urban and rural, veggies and meat eaters. They occur when a malformed protein - the "prion" - begins to replicate within the brain and starts destroying brain tissue. They're usually sporadic, but can be inherited or acquired either through consuming infected material (I remember the BSE outbreak and then the subsequent vCJD outbreak) or from surgical procedures where tools infected with prions are used (dura mater grafts or even blood transfusions - look up Mark Buckland, received a blood transfusion in 1997 from a donor who later died of CJD, Mark himself then went onto develop CJD). They're nothing to do with battlefields or trauma. Trauma doesn't cause proteins to misfold en masse. If they did, CJD or indeed any disease caused by prions would be far more common. I agree that prion diseases are an issue that must be addressed, we still don't know what causes the sporadic misfolding that leads to CJD or SFI after all, only that certain members of the population are more vulnerable than others - people who are homozygous for methionine at codon 129 of the PRNP gene made seem to be over-represented in terms of variant CJD at least. We don't yet know how to cure it and treatments like quinacrine or a direct infusion of Pentosan Polysulphate (PPS) are either so toxic to the body that you instead die of liver failure or the delays in diagnosis and the sheer speed of destruction mean treatment is administered once you've passed the point of critical degeneration and only a small amount of function can be recovered (Jonathan Simms, for example, far exceeded the normal outlook for vCJD patients with a PPS infusion but he still remained comatose and largely unaware of his surroundings). Prompt diagnosis of these diseases still remains elusive because they're so rare. People are usually diagnosed during autopsy because most doctors will never see a case of prion disease in their lifetime and don't know what to look for. That and the differential diagnoses for these diseases are almost infinitesimal. I think the work you're doing is admirable but your statements are not based in fact. Knowledge is power and knowing how prion diseases work is crucial in the fight against them. Speculation can be helpful but presenting speculation as fact is dangerous.
