I don’t know how they could have caught it from people. In our neighborhood, the deer have been very strict in there social distancing from people.
Now my cat does sometimes mingle with them...
That must be it People->Cats out killing birds and chipmunks->Deer. Those poor deer never had a chance!
Science!

I have a solution. The only way we can end this is the Mandate every forest creature get a Covid vaccine and booster. Then, and only then can we get back to normal.

It’s a simple process where we just spend $17 trillion to develop a vaccine, and higher a fully vaccinated federal workforce of thousands of employees to go through the woods and track down every field mouse, deer, mountain lion, etc. And jab them. If some of these people get mauled by a black bear and killed, will just simply blame it on Covid and put the death down as a Covid death And blame the unvaccinated for it.

My advise to the Lancaster County hunter worried about deer having COIVD and what to do about it.

Well, here’s my advise: “Don’t approach it from the rear” also known as the Peter Buttigieg approach to hunting.

Can you say, “gain of function”?

Major auto insurers would love to have a massive culling of the deer herd.

They allegedly introduced coyotes into the NE US...

Looks like Tricksy took the idea of a petting zoo a bit too far.

How exactly did humans infect deer?

A deer has enough brains to tan its own hide.

This can be solved simply. Mandate masks for all deer. And boosters.

its not “allegedly”..they did in Maine...it was considered a “study” and I met some of the college kids that were tracking a pair of them via telemetry collars as “work study” back in the mid 70s ..Now Maine is over run by them...but you wont find that minor “study” anywhere nowadays...it was “discontinued”....

No cows (they fart and make methane, a greenhouse gas), no pigs or chickens (they also produce methane), no fish or shrimp (we are pillaging the seas), no farmed freshwater fish (they use grain needed for biodiesel), no hunting because deer and mink have the coronavirus, but hey, we can eat roaches because they can propagate on human feces!

Oh, but “elites” can still get a prime steak because they paid their carbon offsets with our tax dollars.

Steve Mohr, a longtime Lancaster County sportsman, recalled taking a call earlier this season — a fellow hunter was on the line, concerned about recent reports that white-tailed deer had tested positive for the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

“He wanted to know what to do,” Mohr said Thursday, explaining the hunter was unsure if he should go out and attempt to bag a buck this year.

Something about this narrative doesn’t pass the smell test.

It sounds just a little too convenient and fabricated.

It sounds like one of those leftist daydream scenarios where everyone is asking the authorities what to do and for permission to do it.

It’s just too convenient, too neat and tidy.

It’s not clear how the virus would spread from humans to deer,

It's pretty unclear to me, too. They are supposed to be shooting deer - not hugging them.

No, that’s CWD, which is actually terrifying.

Re: 31 - I’d want to see that study.

Coyotes were moving into the NE United States in the early 1900s, largely as a result of land use changes and apex predators such as wolves being depopulated.

"It’s not clear how the virus would spread from humans to deer, "

Absurd. Research indicates that the chances of Covid transmission from random contact outside is virtually zero.

"...as Dr. Muge Cevik, a virologist at the University of St. Andrews, said. In truth, the share of transmission that has occurred outdoors seems to be below 1 percent and may be below 0.1 percent, multiple epidemiologists told me. The rare outdoor transmission that has happened almost all seems to have involved crowded places or close conversation. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/11/briefing/outdoor-covid-transmission-cdc-number.html

A (Oct 29, 2020) Massachusetts report on clusters found that household transmission was at the center of the vast majority (almost 94 percent[83]

Thus the likely explanation for virus spreading from humans to deer is that this is due to hunters engaging in close conversation with deer, likely in crowded places. /sar

I'd be more worried about this. From July...

So we hunters need to stop getting within 6 feet of deer I guess. Oh and wear a n95 mask to ensure we don’t give it to the deer. For an aerosolized virus, one likely spread purposefully on the world, let it destroy every single vestige of freedom and sense of enjoyment.
