A study led by University of Calgary researchers reports that chronic wasting disease (CWD) prions can be detected in some animals that show no obvious symptoms, and that material from those animals was able to transmit infection in laboratory experiments. The authors say the findings do not indicate an immediate threat to people but add to evidence that CWD’s behavior across species warrants continued monitoring.
