Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which is greatly affecting my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How can be prevented from other zoonotic diseases?Doctor's answer:
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is indeed an infectious disease that can be transmitted from animals to humans. To prevent this disease, the main measure is to avoid consuming beef from infected cattle. Especially when we eat meat from animals, it must be cooked thoroughly. If it is not cooked properly, the bacteria cannot be killed, making it easier to contract the disease. Since we cannot predict whether the meat we buy is from infected animals, it is essential to cook it thoroughly before eating.
