Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare, degenerative, invariably fatal brain disorder. It affects about one person in every one million people per year worldwide; in the United States there are about 300 cases per year. CJD usually appears in later life and runs a rapid course.
In cows, this form of the disease is known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) or, more commonly, mad cow disease.. Another example of an acquired human prion disease is kuru, which was identified in the South Fore population in Papua New Guinea.
