TRIBUTE TO GIANLUCA - KILLED BY MAD COW DISEASE

www.gianlucasgueglia.org

This video is dedicated to Gianluca Sgueglia whose life was taken at the age of 33 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 Gianluca 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 Gianluca 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 33 years that Gianluca gave us.
