What is Affected

At the discovery of Chronic Wasting Disease, many people were worried because they did not know what could be affected by the disease. Some feared for their personal safety where others took concern for items close to them. Because of this, CWD was blown out of proportion more than it should have been. Fortunately, research has calmed some of these fears and has made it easier for people to understand CWD.
