Scotsman: Scientists discover sheep can get BSE. No need to panic, they say. Should we?

A sheep of a type thought to be resistant to BSE has developed a similar type of infection. Elliot Morley, the minister for animal health, moved swiftly to downplay fears. He said that the infected sheep was the only one to develop a disease from a group of 19 which had been subjected to a "massive and unnatural" injection of BSE-infected material directly into their brains.
