Anyone have experience with deer with cutaneous fibromas?

So recently several friends have reported seeing a couple of deer with what they called warts. After doing some more research we found it's actually called cutaneous fibromas. These things are huge, and around the side of a baseball just hanging off the deer. One we have seen a few times has had several of them, another only appeared to have one. I'm reading that this can be spread to other deer. What's the best way to handle this situation? Should we shoot the deer we see with the warts? Will the warts go away? Also, are the deer safe to eat? If not, are the other deer in the area safe to eat if no warts are visible?

So I guess no one else has seen any deer with this?

Seen it years ago on a deer that was killed, guy ate it and appears to be normal.

It is becoming very common in the area I hunt. Fish and Game says it will not effect the meat.
