Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in UK children: A National Surveillance Study
Lancet 356: 1224-1227, Verity,C.M.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
That this prospective active surveillance in the UK has found few children with suspected vCJD is relatively reassuring. However, 3 years is a short time to survey a disease with an unknown incubation period. Since on probably and two defi nite cases of vCJD were reported to the study in 1999, there is concern that more childhood cases may appear.
