This video is dedicated to Andrew Black whose life was taken at the age of 24 by vCJD, variant of the Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, a neurodegenerative disease generated by a terrible race for profit without ethics, profit at all costs.

Since the late 70s many cattle have been fed with meals derived from carcasses of slaughtered animals with the purpose of accelerating the growth of bovine animals thus forcing them, herbivorous in nature, to become carnivorous and actually cannibals.

The highest levels of toxicity for BSE in the food chain was 1990-1991.The highest risk came from MRM (mechanically recovered meat) which was up to ten times cheaper than meat destined for supermarket shelves and food outlets.

MRM resembles a puree or white paste. It's made from vertebral column, ribs, and scraps of meat from the head such as cheeks and tongues. MRM was not only used extensively in pies, burgers and sausages, but also in many vegetarian dishes and chicken meals.

These toxic meals were then supplied to some of the most vulnerable in society. They went into schools, hospitals and nursing homes and the elderly through the meals on wheels service. Prisoners were fed MRM. It was served-up to members of the Armed Forces, and to students in colleges across the country.

This vile mix of animal parts, often cross-contaminated with brain material, was never meant to reach the wider consumer. Supermarkets, food outlets and shops would not risk their customers' disgust . Instead it was regularly fed to schoolchildren, soldiers, sailors, airmen, patients in hospital and to the elderly all who were seen as very much at the end of the "food chain".

The greatest BSE exposure period (for consumers) was 1980-1996. As late as 1995 slaughterhouses were still allowed to mechanically recover meat even though the end-product contained the most dangerous BSE infected parts of the cow.

The result of this unnatural practice is precisely vCJD, which affects young people, killing brain cells and destroying their lives in cruel ways.

The young life of Andrew was taken and destroyed unfairly by vCJD, which transformed his body, young, handsome and vigorous, in a lifeless wreck.

This video is dedicated to the memory of Andrew and to all those young people killed in the prime of life just like him and to show what great tragedies are caused by selfishness, lack of ethics and injustice of the world in which we live.

This video is to remember and to honor the 24 years that Andrew gave us.

  • You just taught me something highly valuable, thank you.

  • brought back so many sad memories not that i dont remember eveyday, i lost my husband on the 15th october 2000 to vCJD he was 26, i miss him everyday still 11 years on, his 2 boys now 12 and 13 dont remember him as they were only babies when he past, but they do know what a fantastic person he was, heart felt sympathy to andys family

  • Hi everyone -- I just launched a campaign and this video in regards to CJD. Anyone who would like to send me their story please check out the video on my page and send to the email address mentioned in the video. Together we can raise awareness!

    Also - I was in contact with Andrew's mother years back. I'd love to include her story.

  • @ExposeCorruption7 Possible but cannibalism both of humans and of animal feed has shown the greatest risk.

  • I am sorry for your loss. My father passed away in 1995 at the age of 35 from vCJD. I was only 11 yrs old when he passed so words cannot even explain the feeling or emotion this video gave me. RIP to all loved ones who passed from vCJD….No more suffering.

  • Check out Mark Purdey's research. He proves that eating infected BSE cattle is NOT the cause of CJD. The actual cause is manganese or silver combining with healthy prions and turning them into rogue proteins. Copper deficiency and deficiency of other minerals plus the effects of certain other toxins like EMFs, UV rays, insecticides, etc. then cause a chain reaction of free radicals.

  • this was a sad but lovely video about Andy and his family. The song was so good and conveyed so many feelings so well. Joan x
