CDC Warns Hunters After Man Likely Contracted Tuberculosis From Deer
Attachment 121699
OKLAHOMA CITY – With deer season just around the corner, the Centers for Disease Control are warning hunters about tuberculosis.
Officials with the CDC issued the warning after learning that a man likely contracted tuberculosis after dressing a deer.
In May of 2017, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services learned of a case of pulmonary tuberculosis caused by the Mycobacterium bovis in a 77-year-old man.
Officials learned that although the patient wasn’t around anyone with tuberculosis, he had regularly hunted and field-dressed deer. Investigators learned that free-ranging deer in the area were often infected with M. bovis.

Well hell he dressed the deer, and I'm sure took it out on a date. Probably gave it a kiss so no wonder he's infected
