Prion diseases are scary. CDC has Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) listed along with mad cow and chronic wasting disease (CWD). As a hunter, I am familiar with CWD and it's extremely transmissible through all bodily fluids (blood, saliva, urine, feces). It can also remain in the environment for years.
If we're destined for a zombie apocalypse I would wager that prion diseases will be the cause.
AFAIK it's not transmissible right?
