##################### Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy #####################
ALBANY, N.Y. Three more captive deer in New York have tested positive
for chronic wasting disease. Agricultural officials say the three deer belonged to the same Oneida
County herd that yielded the first positive last week. There are now
five deer in New York with confirmed cases of C-W-D. All of the cases
come from captive herds -- though state officials are checking to see if
the deadly disease spread into the wild.C-W-D is a transmissible disease
that affects the brain and central nervous system of certain deer and
elk. There is no evidence that C-W-D is linked to disease in humans or
domestic livestock other than deer and elk. Copyright 2005 Associated
