Looking further, I wonder about the Covid transmission from deer for hunters. There are already a couple things you have to be aware of, Chronic Wasting Disease being one, with deer as well as other diseases from other game animals (tularemia from rabbits).
I know I've shot a few geese and ducks over the years that the meat was kinda funky looking when I dressed out the animal.
As I have been saying all along, no virus can be eradicated if it has a non-human reservoir. We are not going to euthanize all of America’s deer, nor are we going to vaccinate then all. The virus will mutate in the deer, just like it did the Danish minks, and come back in a new variant. We have to learn how to effectively treat this disease, we are not going to be able to vaccinate it away.
Quite an irony. Vaccines will actually be more effective against disease with non human reservoirs, but only against strains that prefer non human reservoirs.
Polio has not been eradicated..but we all support the vaccine right?
