Eric Krewson:
Turns out the video is highly edited to make it sound like these folk have found a cure. They are looking for a grant and over emphasized their "findings" to hopefully get funded.  There is no cure in the works at this time.

bjrogg:
I'm pretty sure even if they do have a cure, it will take much longer than they are saying just to get EPA approval. Not to mention environmental survey studies and public comments period. Stuff like this even if a true miracle cure takes lots of time to be properly tested. I know a lot of people think the Chemical and drug companies just put stuff on the market but that's not how it works. It takes years and years of very expensive testing. Many products never get tested because of the cost and expected demand for products. I hope they are right and it is a miracle cure, but I'm not holding my breath.

At this time there is no cure. There is only efforts to curb the spread and the ONLY thing that will curb the spread is THE ONE AND ONLY THING OFFICIALS AND HUNTERS WILL NOT DO!

The deer population needs to be knocked back by 80% or more everywhere. Without having a population wrecking event, deer to deer contact will continue to spread the disease. Reducing populations until such time that deer contact with others of their own kind is rare, the disease will just continue to spread until such time as a natural crash wipes them out.

But you think your state game agency will tolerate that? You think the hunters will tolerate that? Nope, didn't think so. So just sit back and wait for a near extinction event deals with it for you.
