Ticks harbor and excrete chronic wasting disease prions
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by infectious prions (PrP(CWD)) affecting cervids. Circulating PrP(CWD) in blood may pose a risk for indirect transmission by way of hematophagous ectoparasites acting as mechanical vectors. Cervids can carry high tick infesta...
