RE: CWD?
If what you say is true then why are there almost no deer processors that take the whole deer anymore and why is it that the lockers are required to process the deer individually although all the deer tested in Iowa have tested negative? Have you actually bothered to look at the science behind CWD? It is not hogwash as you might want to beleive. Ispoke with the head scientist at USDA that is studying CWD and he statednormal cooking of the meat infected with CWD would not kill the disease unless you cooked it at a very high temp which would make the meat unedible. I was told to not cut across the spinal cord , spine or any bone. When I removed the head only do this with a saw and/or knife I would not be using on anything else until it was properly sanitized with bleach.
Could you also tell me why the USDAhas built a new facilty (fall 2005)totally dedicated to the CDW disease?
What scientific basis can you state that totally negates the concern over CDW?
I'll be anxiuosly awaiting your answer because it would please me tono end if what the scientist stated to me was totally wrong. But I still would have to wonder why they built this building if we had nothing to fear.
