[@ILLegalE504]

To be honest being that it’s a Fox News reporting I can’t take it too serious and definitely wouldn’t need the beer. Even if this dude says it’s not able to be passed on to us. Sorry not taking that risk.

[@areacobee9382]

So basically its kind of like rabies?

[@bejaminmaston1347]

It's a prion, it's kind of like mad cow disease but chronic wasting disease attacks the brain and it makes the deer act like a zombie
Erratic movement
Running in circles
No fear
I believe necrosis (decaying while alive)
Aggression
Weight loss
Starving itself
While rabies is basically in simple terms a virus that attacks the brain that causes hydrophobia and high aggression
