So to answer this posting, the answer is NO CWD cannot infect humans.
Thread 'CWD Now can Infect Humans.'

So after the recent absolute BS "story" in Outdoor Life of CWD infecting hunters, we now have a REAL study PUBLISHED in CDC by NIH that proves the CWD prion does not transfer into human brain tissue. This is a study for June 2024!
Well worth the read and provides legitimate data to shut the antis up. Plus alleviate some fears out there. But I will bet you a box of FM215's, there will be some wildlife agencies trying to refute to push their own unscientific agenda.

Can Humans Get Sick from CWD?
A new study has shown that it's highly unlikely that CWD can be passed from deer to humans. The NIH published a study that showed zero transmission to human brain tissue from CWD-infected samples, even with direct exposure.
