Re: Pennsylvania 27 deer from Bedford County farm test positive for CWD
I got my license for the first time in years in order to take my kids hunting. I have to say this makes me not want to get a deer, I suppose the odds are they don't have it, still it is messed up.

Re: Pennsylvania 27 deer from Bedford County farm test positive for CWD
Then don't be in contact with other people's urine and feces.
Nothing that I've read has this being transmitted by casual contact. It's either contact with waste products or cadavers. What's really scary is that the prions aren't as affected by adverse environmental conditions as are bacteria or viruses. They're persistant and could potentially be picked up just by touching the ground where a deer pooped weeks before. You would still likely have to have the prion find its way into your mouth, but count how many times in a day you touch your face near your mouth.Sed ego sum homo indomitus

Re: Pennsylvania 27 deer from Bedford County farm test positive for CWD
Somebody gets infected. Goes to Golden Corral and takes a dump and doesn't wash their hands. Touches a bunch of things. You touch those things and have dinner. Now you and your whole family get infected. Your family goes out into the world and it spreads. Nobody finds out their infected for a year and a half. I've read that infected animals are constantly shedding prions. Deer touch noses and it can transfer. The prions can survive for over a decade and are not effected by cooking or freezing. It's not a danger to us yet. Hopefully it stays that way.
