Does mad cow disease affect vampires

Question

if so can you tell me what book or movie its from

Answer 1

dude... duhhh

did you know I saw a vampire who got aids?

Answer 2

Yes, they become Mad Campers.

They run around their caravans, foaming at the mouth and throwing food and pieces of plastic cutlery at each other. Females take up knitting and the older ones moan at the young mad campers. On long journeys they all bicker and whinge at each other.

In other words no, they aren't affected. They never caught foot and mouth or Anthrax either!

Answer 3

yes, but if the vampire humps a mummy, then he's all good.

Answer 4

ASK d**k CHENEY THAT BLOOD SUCKING BASTURD

Answer 5

I doubt it would.  Their healing powers would cure it.

ProTip: Vampires can't get diarrhea.

Answer 6

Well vampires don't exist, of course.

Mad Cow disease, also known as vCJD, is thought to be caused by misfolded proteins called prions...the bad kind. When these misfolded proteins come into contact with normal proteins, they cause the normal proteins to misfold, and so that which the proteins make up essentially falls apart.

Prions are not alive, they are more like reactive chemicals, and it takes a considerable amount of heat and pressure to break them down. Cooking an infected piece of meat until it's burnt to a crisp will usually not destroy the prions.

Now if we regard a vampire physically as a corpse, the question is, can prions damage dead tissue?

The prions from a dead infected animal can certainly infect living tissue. So much so that most morticians and embalmers will not handle the body of someone thought to have died from a prion disease. Disposal of the corpse itself is a massive issue because of the potential for the prions to contaminate ground water and soil and find their way into another person.

Yes, these things are insidious and tens of thousands of people are thought to be infected with them due to eating or coming into contact with infected beef. Symptoms of a prion disease can take decades to show up.

Anyway, on that lovely note, I will have to conclude, yes, prions would be very good at destroying vampires.

Answer 7

seriously how can anyone who thinks about these thing ask such a question

first for a "vampire" to get any sort of disease they would have to be real in the first place

and i would love to meet just one out of the billions of people on this planet that can prove they are vampires

so do answer your question since vampire lore is just that and the vast amount of it made up on a whim i would say no vampires can't get mad cow disease because they have a genetic advantage of blue blood cells much like white blood cells blue one fight blood related diseases

Answer 8

It is possible...vampires suffer from hemmorhoids just like us....also they f**t loudly when they bite a virgin

Answer 9

just ask my good friend big foot
