Zombie deer disease: A new disease for deer in America, another threat after Covid-19

Years have passed since the coronavirus pandemic subsided, but the spread of the multi-morphing virus continues to make people tense. Now another virus is threatening humanity. That's the 'zombie deer' virus. Scientists say that if this virus, which is currently limited to animals, starts infecting humans, it will be very difficult to protect ourselves. In this sequence, Canadian scientists have expressed concern over the spread of a deadly infection called Zombie Deer Disease. They warn that humans are also at risk of contracting the disease in the future. The original name of this disease is Chronic Wasting Disease. It is a neurological condition that kills every animal it infects. Currently, this disease is spreading rapidly in deer in America.

Canadian scientists are concerned about the spread of the zombie virus. It is warned that in the future, humans are also at risk of getting infected with this virus. According to international reports, British Columbia has issued a strategy to prevent the spread of the zombie virus in Canada. Two cases of the disease were reported here at the end of January. Since then the authorities here have been working fast. Governments there have issued orders to test every deer, moose, elk, or caribou killed on the road.

The zombie virus accumulates in the brain and other tissues, causing physical and behavioral changes, degeneration, and eventually death. It is spread from one animal to another through contact in the environment such as feces, soil, and vegetation, or indirectly. Animals are also at risk of contracting the virus if their feed or pasture is contaminated with the prions they carry. It can take up to a year for these symptoms to appear in a deer. The deer shows signs of severe weight loss, loss of all energy, and death. Signs include drooling and drooling.
