There was a reported case of CJD in a patient who had a corneal transplant from an infected person.
maybe prion tainted tools at the cataract clinic.
Routine sterilization is not good enough to stop prion spread diseases.
I predict that over the next few years, as these vaccines kick in, that we will be seeing some of the strangest “Conditions” to ever hit mankind.
You think one random region in rural New Brunswick has its own vaccines that the rest of the world doesn't have? Are you high?
No, but moose aplenty.
“Three of the deaths are people who had cataract surgery... Oddly enough.”
Freaking great, I’m doing that next month. If I make it that long!
Sasquatch bites ... infected
Canadian cannibals?
I’m sure it happens.
of course it could just be Bats.
CJD is an awful disease. Like watching someone suffer alzhmers on steroids... a couple months and dead. Horrible. It’s origin I think is something to do with species eating its own. Cattle being fed cattle meat in the feed....and humans eating that meat. It can stay dorman for decades befors symptoms emerge...uaually in your 60s. Someone getting it now could have gotten it in the 1970s or 80s.
Time to shut off all travel from Canada.
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Free everyone else.
From water, food or air? Glad they narrowed it down.
“herring choker
An individual of Scandinavian descent. Also applicable to landlocked enclaves of Scandinavian emigrants, such as the entire state of Minnesota, even though these communities no longer choke their herring in the traditional fashion but instead rely on commercial canneries to pre-choke and pickle their fish.”
Funny, as I sit here eating “Fish in a Jar” [Pickled Herring] on pieces of Flat Bread....
Not very well. They missed space aliens.
Prions...I hate prions.
It’s nice that the things use the sidewalk instead of running all amok ‘n’ stuff. Hope they watch the lights so it’s safe to cross.
It looks like she actually said that.

I sure hope they have good epidemiologists in Canada.
I think that’s a given. Social Credit scores and all...
