There were no symptoms. Whether the treatment was necessary or not, whether the disease was liable to flare up or remain latent, or even whether it existed is open to conjecture.<br />That is beside MY point, which is that milk from another species is unnatural for human wellbeing. People in dairy economies have aquired a tolerance, which is not the same thing.<br />However, the main badness in this story is the State is forcing people to conform to their idea of a right-thinking citizen. As for the health issues, since the compulsory use of mercury flourescent lightbulbs I am convinced that the State cares little for public health.richardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30136383.post-91752625360253587152011-11-01T13:52:09.504+00:002011-11-01T13:52:09.504+00:00Let me get this right.

A course of antibiotics for six months has cured it. It was described as latent TB. Thanks for the best wishes, Tap, and in fact things seem sorted out.<br />My comments are prejudicially based because I am not entirely convinced that bovine milk is a good food for primate adults. However I think that pasteurisation is a sensible precaution. Just my opinion, and of course if people want to buy and sell untreated milk then it seems only right to let them do so.richardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30136383.post-63335904180848054352011-10-31T19:57:14.374+00:002011-10-31T19:57:14.374+00:00Forty years incubation period must be pushing it, ...Forty years incubation period must be pushing it, Richard. I hope she makes a recovery soon. Cows don't shit on themselves or each other in a field, only in a location with restricted space and when stressed. Mastitis is a short-term, painful and obvious disease and nothing to do with TB. I feel your comments are prejudicially based.Tapestryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267094484651413428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30136383.post-289105270225128672011-10-31T19:21:33.301+00:002011-10-31T19:21:33.301+00:00The Missis is from Ireland and drank nothing but u...The Missis is from Ireland and drank nothing but unpasteurised milk as a child. Now in her late forties she has been diagnosed with latent TB, and is hypothesising that the bacillus was transmitted to her via the untreated milk. No proof, but there it is.<br />As Al Murray said, a cow is a diarrhoea-stained monster that lives in a field.

I only pass on the thoughts and writings of others on that topic, which is not my area of expertise. Although, as you say, the exact date could prove very important.
