That sounds like a good theory, but it does not explain the cluster of Creutzfeldt-Jakob's disease in one small town. If memory serves me, it was in Wisconsin, and had about a dozen cases, all in one small town. That's more than the rest of the country gets in a decade. Since we are pretty sure the town was full of cannibals, there must be another, unaccepted. reason. That reason would be the fact that they all ate game meat from that area.

I agree that your chances are slim of getting the disease, but they are not zero. It has happened, just like mad cow disease. That was another prion that could not be transmitted to people.
