It is not certain how Chronic wasting disease CWD is transmitted, but based
on experience with the disease in captive deer species in facilities in the
states of Colorado and Wyoming, both lateral (animal to animal) and maternal
(mother to offspring) transmission may be possible. The most likely means of transmission is
between animals that are in close contact with each other. The epidemiology
supports the lateral transmission as the major mode of transmission as most
affected animals in the Colorado and Wyoming facilities were unrelated. In
addition, the elk and mule deer placed in paddocks that had housed infected
cervids for many years, became infected, even though there were no other
cervids on the premises, leading to the assumption that the environment of
a facility could transmit the disease. There were a few cases of CWD in
offspring of dams which developed the disease but it was not possible to
rule out lateral transmission.

Is there a risk to human health?
There is currently no scientific evidence that CWD affects humans, but we
must exercise caution since there is some evidence to suggest that BSE can
affect humans, which is another TSE also known as mad cow disease.

This is fantastic, it has the capacity of changing names depending what
species is affecting. jajajajaja
No mad cow humans, just Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

This deer transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), however, apparently
has shown that injestion of contaminated tissues is NOT required for transmission.
I see it potentially more dangerous than the Mad Cow strains. Maybe contact
with contaminated fecal particles is enough.
But lets just wait for 10 or 15 years for the incubation period to show me wrong,
lets do nothing.

Deer feces in my gardening organic soil?

This is fantastic, it has the capacity of changing names depending what
species is affecting. jajajajaja
No mad cow humans, just Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

'TSEs are a mysterious class of diseases that are called by different
names in different species. For instance some identified types of TSE
are Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), and its specific strain, new
variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (nvCJD) which is a human disease
apparently caused by the same agent which causes bovine spongiform
encephalopathy (BSE) or British "mad cow" disease, Fatal Familial
Insomnia (FFA), Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker Syndrome (GSS),
scrapie in sheep, transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME) in mink in
North America, and chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer and elk in
North America. There may be different strains of TSE within species,
and new strains may be produced when TSEs move from one animal
species to another.

The common characteristics of TSE diseases are that they are
invariably fatal. '
http://www.icta.org/legal/madcow.htm

This deer transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), however, apparently
has shown that injestion of contaminated tissues is NOT required for transmission.
I see it potentially more dangerous than the Mad Cow strains. Maybe contact
with contaminated fecal particles is enough.
But lets just wait for 10 or 15 years for the incubation period to show me wrong,
lets do nothing.

That still appears to be the attitude of some. Of course that's the
same attitude that allowed things to get this far..

Deer feces in my gardening organic soil?

Direct Saliva Contact, Etc, Most Likely Route CWD Infection
USGS National Wildlife Health Center
12-5-2

... The mode of transmission of CWD between animals is not known,
although direct contact between infected and non-infected animals
via saliva, urine and feces is the most likely route of transmission.
Contamination of soil by excreta from infected animals is thought to
be another route of transmission, particularly among captive herds
of deer and elk.
http://www.nwhc.usgs.gov/research/ch...c_wasting.html

____________
http://www.inspection.gc.ca/english/.../cwdmdce.shtml
...
It is not certain how Chronic wasting disease CWD is transmitted, but based
on experience with the disease in captive deer species in facilities in the
states of Colorado and Wyoming, both lateral (animal to animal) and maternal
(mother to offspring) transmission may be possible. The most likely means of
transmission is between animals that are in close contact with each other.
The epidemiology supports the lateral transmission as the major mode of
transmission as most affected animals in the Colorado and Wyoming facilities
were unrelated. In addition, the elk and mule deer placed in paddocks that
had housed infected cervids for many years, became infected, even though there
were no other cervids on the premises, leading to the assumption that the
environment of a facility could transmit the disease. There were a few cases
of CWD in offspring of dams which developed the disease but it was not possible
to rule out lateral transmission.

Is there a risk to human health?
There is currently no scientific evidence that CWD affects humans, but we
must exercise caution since there is some evidence to suggest that BSE can
affect humans, which is another TSE also known as mad cow disease.
...

Hold onto your hat...
'An estimated two to three million Americans are afflicted by
Alzheimer's (Scully, 1993); it is the fourth leading cause of death
among the elderly in the U.S (Perry, 1995). Twenty percent or more
of people clinically diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease are found
at autopsy to not have had Alzheimer's at all (McKhann, 1984). At
Yale, out of 46 patients clinically diagnosed with Alzheimer's,
6 were proven to be CJD at autopsy (Manuelidis, 1989). In another
post-mortem study 3 out of 12 "Alzheimer" patients actually died
from a spongiform encephalopathy (Teixeira, 1995). .....' !!!
http://www.mad-cow.org/~tom/Alzheimer_cjd.html

How?

'When mink TSE wiped out 60 percent of the 7,300 breeding mink
on a Stetsonville, Wisconsin, ranch in 1985, Marsh traced the disease
to the mink's feed, downer dairy cows (cows unable to walk and
considered unfit for human consumption). Marsh injected some of
the infected mink tissue into the brains of two calves and waited. In
less than two years, the calves' rear legs collapsed under them just
like downer cattle. He injected some of the calves' brain tissue back
into healthy mink. After an incubation period identical to that in the
original infected mink, the new mink developed the same disease. '
http://www.milwaukeemagazine.com/122002/cwd.html

'It is reassuring that outbreaks of TSEs on mink farms have been rare,
and that none have been documented in the last ten years. However,
one unsettling thing about Dr. Marsh's work on TSE is that the two
calves infected with diseased mink brain did not act aggressively or
exhibit any of the other behavioral symptoms typical of "mad cow"
disease; rather, they just became a little stiff and sluggish and
ultimately collapsed, much as a "downer" cow would. Furthermore,
histopathological examination of the calves brain did not turn up
spongy holes in the places of the brain where "mad cow" disease
usually attacks. In fact, the brain lesions were variable and did not
resemble those seen in British cattle with "mad cow" disease. However,
these cattle died of a spongiform encephalopathy (Marsh et al., 1991).
These data suggest that TSEs could occur in cattle without being
noticed or properly identified as such.

Without any reasonable doubt TE's are caused by transmission of prions
from one animal to another.

The origin of BSE is unknown and there aren't very convincing pointers
either.

Or is that too simple?

much to simple. It doesn't allow for conspiracy theories, the
macinations of corporate capitalists, or the despicable actions of
corrupt politicians.

If people had to face up to this generally then a lot of sad and
inadequate people would suddenly have to face up to the fact that sh*t
happens and you cannot keep blaming your parents all your life.

Much more comforting to believe that it is all "their" fault and that
"they" are out there plotting against the small folk, holding them back.
