Horizontal Transmission of Chronic Wasting Disease in Reindeer [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016 We challenged reindeer by the intracranial route with the agent of chronic wasting disease sourced from white-tailed deer, mule deer, or elk and tested for horizontal transmission to naive reindeer.

Scientific opinion on chronic wasting disease (II) [PDF]
EFSA Journal, 2018 The European Commission asked EFSA for a scientific opinion on chronic wasting disease in two parts. Part one, on surveillance, animal health risk‐based measures and public health risks, was published in January 2017.

Chronic Wasting Disease Agents in Nonhuman Primates
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 Chronic wasting disease is a prion disease of cervids. Assessment of its zoonotic potential is critical. To evaluate primate susceptibility, we tested monkeys from 2 genera.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2007 Until recently, chronic wasting disease of cervids, the only prion disease affecting wildlife, was believed to be geographically concentrated to Colorado and Wyoming within the United States. However, increased surveillance has unveiled several additional pockets of CWD-infected deer and elk in 12 additional states and 2 Canadian provinces.

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids [PDF]
EFSA Journal, 2017 In April and May of 2016, Norway confirmed two cases of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in a wild reindeer and a wild moose, respectively. In the light of this emerging issue, the European Commission requested EFSA to recommend surveillance activities and,

Susceptibilities of Nonhuman Primates to Chronic Wasting Disease
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, or prion disease, that affects deer, elk, and moose. Human susceptibility to CWD remains unproven despite likely exposure to CWD-infected cervids.

Exposure Risk of Chronic Wasting Disease in Humans [PDF]
Viruses, 2020 The majority of human prion diseases are sporadic, but acquired disease can occur, as seen with variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (vCJD) following consumption of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE).

The Zoonotic Potential of Chronic Wasting Disease—A Review
Foods, 2023 Prion diseases are transmissible neurodegenerative disorders that affect humans and ruminant species consumed by humans. Ruminant prion diseases include bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle, scrapie in sheep and goats and chronic wasting ...
