A Madrid youngster, Javier Monge, has died, according to his parents from Creutzfeldt-Jakob, the human form of Mad Cow disease. An autopsy is now being carried out to confirm the cause of death, but the results of the test will not be known for a month.

Javier Monge lived in the U.K. for more than a year at the end of the 90’s and his parents say they think that is when he developed the disease.
