Insane!

 The NY Times has an article on deer dying from a wasting disease, a prion disorder. Prior disease like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)is a deadly protein neurological disorder. It can be highly contagious from bodily fluids from a infected entity. The Times shows employees with dead deer noting:

The harvested deer were prepared at the state lab in Lena, Ill., for sample-taking and field dressing.

 If the deer prion disorder can jump species this is a great way to start another epidemic. No masks and blood on the floor! This is a Level 4 pathogen! If you thought COVID was bad this is a billion time worse.
