[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2619995, member: 113268"] They don't know. It has been shown to jump to small monkeys so there is a possibility that it could jump to humans. Also, its a prion. They have an incubation period of 5 to 40 years, so if you eat it now you may be dead before it would affect you or you could be old and it could possibly be diagnosed as something else like dementia if they aren't looking for it. What it is not is some government conspiracy to prevent you from eating deer meat. There is a genuine concern. Eat it at your own risk. Like others said, its almost a guarantee that people have been eating it and there have been no known effects. [/QUOTE]
