While cases of infection of people and Pets is not recorded, but scientists do not exclude such a possibility.

In 24 U.S. States and two canadian provinces deer and elk have been diagnosed with a chronic disease wasting (CWD) is a neurological disease also known as “the zombie disease”. This was reported on the website of the American Center for control and prevention of diseases.

Its informal name of the disease was due to effects on the brain of the animals: they become aggressive and inappropriate, while they disturbed coordination of movements, dramatically reducing the weight.

The nature of the disease is still unclear. The most common theory is that it does not cause viruses, bacteria or parasites, and prions — proteins with abnormal structure, which tend to accumulate in the brain. Another theory claims that the causative agent of this disease is a bacterium spiroplasma.
