Mitchell's investigation revealed several flaws in a few of the U.S. agencies meant to prevent and contain illnesses such as mad cow and Creutzfeld Jakob diseases. This series looks at the problems and inconsistencies within these programs and was also cited in the Inspector General's audit of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's mad cow surveillance program. The investigation also looks into possible cases of mad cow disease in the United States which have gone undetected or may have been kept under wraps.
