South Korea bans Canadian beef

 South Korea has banned beef from Canada after the Canadian Food Inspection Agency said it confirmed a case of atypical Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE or mad cow’s disease) in an eight-year-old Alberta cow.

South Korea said the ban will remain in effect until the Canadian government provides enough information to satisfy its concerns.

South Korea is the only country so far to ban Canadian beef because of this one cow.
