If the prion kill temp is that high would the rendering temp change anything? Could this lend credence to Bastians theory that spiroplsm bacteria are the real vector? I am not sure of the current rendering requirements, but it is Temp x time x pressure related ( kind of like a giant pressure cooker). We don’t really know that much about prions and spread, and there is a lot of speculation. How long has it actually been around? How widespread it actually is in North America? I recently sent a note to Bob Zent on similar comments in Outdoor News. I question how long CWD has been around versus other prion diseases in the USA. We must be clear in what we are talking about. I still wonder if CWD existed before the Colorado experiments. Or are there two strains, a spontaneous form that crops up on it’s own and the the form that has spread from Colorado. I find it interesting that Minnesota is now talking about slowing the spread, while discussions one year ago were about disease elimination.
