Explanation:

Variant Creutzefeldt Jakob disease (VCJD) is a brain disease caused by a mutated protein (prion).

This particular type of CJD can be caused by eating beef from animals that were infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

Listeriosis is caused by a bacteria called Listeria monocytogenes

Listeriosis often occurs through digesting contaminated foods such as raw meat, beef or dairy products.

E.coli-0157:H7

E. coli is a bacteria that occurs naturally in the digestive system of humans and animals.

However, it can be disease causing once it spreads to other parts of the body.

There are different strains of E.coli.

E.coli 0157:H7 is a dangerous strain to humans and is found in the manure of cattle, dogs and geese.

People can become sick with this by eating raw contaminated meat.
