How would an outbreak affect the community?
As BSE is a significant risk to human health, even a single case would cause some community concern. This concern would be likely to translate into a significant reduction in the demand for Australian beef, both in our export markets and within Australia. That would result in job losses in the livestock industry and its various support industries. It is likely that there would also be some job losses in the tourism and hospitality industries.
