Gets spread if a midge bites and infected deer , then bites another host deer while having blood from infected deer still in it

So the answer is? Shoot infected? 
do they all die from it?

This buck was just over the NY border on high point and was taken by NY dec and is being tested for CWD and EHD.

Just talked to me neighbor in Cream Ridge. The field adjacent to my property was planted with alfalfa this yer. I think deer like alfalfa  more than corn. This field with out alfalfa would have on it 30 to 50 deer every single evening. He has not seen a single deer in it in a week. This is really devastating.

I had this buck on cam in August 

this was my honey hole. 40 acres  to myself in an unbelievable spot. I’m sure it’s gone for 4 years. Now I see deer with EHD on my 2nd spot in Huntedon. No good!!

Deer are on acorns extremely hard , unless you find a buck dead you need to hope he us just somewhere else .

they could care less about most other types of food right now .just hitting other sources in route to where they are spending 95% of their time .

Maybe it’s time to rethink the 6 month deer season, 6 buck limit and unlimited does in this state.

No need. You can’t kill what is not there

We found one dead buck in 8 by Flanders and Washington.  And I have something dead in 2 but haven't see what it is .

Only if very sick.  I read some survive & pass on a level of immunity
