I'm hearing only 15 days to flatten the curve.

Earlier this year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) found COVID-19 antibodies in white-tailed deer tested in four states: Illinois, Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania.
Now, some health officials suggest hunters wear a mask while handling and cleaning carcasses. That has prompted some questions about whether hunting deer and eating their meat is safe.
Multiple studies have found COVID-19 antibodies in deer. A study by the USDA found that COVID-19 antibodies were detected in 33% of 481 samples taken from white-tailed deer between January 2020 and March 2021 in Illinois, Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania. However, researchers were unable to conclude how the deer were infected.
“We do not know how the deer were exposed to SARS-CoV-2,” the USDA said. “It’s possible they were exposed through people, the environment, other deer, or another animal species.”
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says COVID-19 can spread from people to “susceptible animal species.” Those species include deer and cats, which is why lions and tigers in zoos have tested positive for COVID-19.

Ping.
They should ban hunting and hunting rifles right now just to be safe
It’s not the deer’s fault. THey almost always respect the 6 foot distance.
I’m getting a magnetoscope for my rifle, in case they vaccinate the deer.
Can I get a fat Fauci grant? I have a shot which kills virus AND host every time?
Don't worry, I only shoot the unvaccinated ones.
I'm hearing only 15 days to flatten the curve.
How many people are in close contact with deer? Virtually none.
ANY suggestion by the enemidia that deer transmit the Coof to humans is just anti-hunting propaganda, which this time of year, is pumped out 24 hours a day. Wouldn’t want the peasants to be self-sufficient, harvesting natural meat.
Why aren’t the sumbitch deer masking up? Someone get Fauci on this.
I am.
I feed them everyday for the most part.
Now they don’t let me get close enough to pet them, but I have enough that I want to stencils #s on them so I can keep track of them.
😉
Bride and I have been eating venison for two weeks. No illnesses here. Must be our high antibody count from August.
only bats
This is just impossible.
Lions, tigers and bears at ZOOS that interact with humans on a daily basis, are not WILD deer in the woods or in your back yard.
As many comment and LAUGH about the 6ft rule, it is TRUE! The only deer that I have gotten within 6 feet of were ALL DEAD!
Wild deer from Iowa don’t know (in the biblical sense) wild deer in NY.
It can’t be the wild deer from different states infecting each other, it can’t be humans, it can’t be bats from Wuhan, just HOW are they getting infected?
I call BULLSHIRT on this. Unless it’s just a corona virus that they’ve always had.
This FEAR PORN is done on purpose to discourage
hunting (killing Bambi) and of course THE GUNS that kill Bambi.
Everybody that shoots one.
PETA agrees with this message.
Also, Save the Zebras. lions should eat soy food.
Not with each other but humans they usually keep their distance from.
Beautiful pic though.
