Human Mad Cow & Cosmetic Procedures

Here's a very interesting article from the Times of London regarding a possible connection between collagen and botox injections and the development of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, the human form of Mad Cow. Here's one little quote that should get some attention:
The expert group’s study of a range of aesthetic fillers, which are often made from human or bovine tissue, had already found samples containing material from dead bodies and birds, Sir Liam added.
With all the regulations already on animal feed to stop the transmission of the disease, it will be interesting to see what happens with this bit of info.
