Something's not right in the woods, at least if you're a white-tailed deer. In this episode, the guys dig into chronic wasting disease (CWD), a strange illness reshaping deer populations in many areas of the Lower 48 (and Scandinavia!). It's not caused by a virus or a bacteria, but it is related to mad cow disease. They break down what it is, how it spreads, what's happening inside infected animals, and why it's so dang hard to contain. The deer are not alright… and there's a reason.This episode was recorded on April 23, 2026 at Walton Woods Park in Amherst, NY (a suburb of Buffalo). Episode Notes and Links· Are there different CWD strains in a single animal? Chronic wasting disease isn't a single, uniform pathogen. It's more like a shifting swarm. Infected deer can carry multiple prion “strains” at once, meaning different misfolded shapes of the same protein that behave in slightly different ways. They could spread through the body differently, build up in different tissues, and cause disease at different rates. Lab experiments show this most clearly: when CWD prions are passed through model systems, what looks like one strain can split into multiple distinct variants, or reveal that a mixed population was there all along (e.g., Angers et al. 2010 PNAS; Béringue et al. 2012 Journal of Virology; Li et al. 2010 Journal of Virology). In actual deer, the picture is harder to pin down, but studies comparing prions from different tissues and individuals show real strain diversity and suggest that more than one strain can exist within a single animal (e.g., Angers et al. 2009 Journal of Virology; Moore et al. 2016 Emerging Infectious Diseases). The takeaway is that CWD behaves less like a single disease agent and more like a moving target: a cloud of protein shapes, some dominant, some hidden in the background, that can shift over time, giving the disease more chances to adapt, persist, and potentially jump into new hosts.· Does repeated exposure to CWD reduce incubation time in deer? Repeated exposure to CWD prions does likely shortens incubation time, mainly because prion diseases are strongly dose-dependent. Higher cumulative exposure, whether from a single large dose or many smaller ones over time, can both increase the chance of infection and accelerate disease progression. Experimental studies in deer and elk show that animals exposed to higher or repeated doses tend to develop symptoms faster than those exposed once at low levels. In the wild, this likely plays out through repeated contact with contaminated environments like soil, plants, and carcass sites. That said, factors like genetics and prion strain can still influence how quickly the disease develops in any given animal.· Is CWD the only prion disease that affects wildlife? CWD is the only prion disease currently thriving as a self-sustaining epidemic in wild populations. The others mostly sit at the edges and are livestock diseases that occasionally spill into wildlife or appear in captive/wild interface cases. For example, scrapie occasionally “leaks” into the wild (it has been found in bighorn sheep), but it doesn't take over. It flickers at the edges of livestock systems. Nothing like the landscape-level, self-sustaining spread we see with CWD. That's what makes CWD so concerning: it's not just present in wildlife, it seems to be built for it.· Steve talked about the possibility of vampire bats and wild hogs spreading CWD. What's the story? There's currently no evidence that vampire bats are spreading CWD, but the wild hog story has gotten more interesting recently. Blood-feeding bats like the Common Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus) are often mentioned because prions can occur in blood at low levels, but there are no peer-reviewed studies showing bat-mediated transmission, nor any field patterns linking bats to CWD spread. So the bat idea remains speculative. Wild hogs (Sus scrofa), on the other hand, have moved beyond pure theory. A recent peer-reviewed study (e.g., Soto et al. 2025 Emerging Infectious Diseases) detected low levels of CWD prion activity in free-ranging pigs in endemic areas, suggesting they can pick up and carry prions after scavenging infected carcasses. Combine this with earlier work showing prions can survive digestion and still remain infectious (e.g., Nichols et al. 2009 PLoS ONE), it all points to hogs as plausible mechanical vectors: in other words, organisms that can move infectious material without necessarily developing the disease themselves. The takeaway: vampire bats are still a biologically interesting but unsupported idea, while wild hogs are emerging as potential “messy middlemen,” capable of redistributing prions across the landscape, even if they're not a primary engine of CWD transmission, which is still driven by deer-to-deer contact and long-lived environmental contamination.· Why doesn't NYS do more free testing?New York doesn't offer broad, free testing for every deer. Not because it's ignoring CWD, but because it uses a more targeted, strategic approach. There are a few key constraints on broad, free testing:Cost & logistics: Each test isn't just a swab. It involves lab processing (often PCR or amplification assays), trained staff, and sample handling. Scaling that to hundreds of thousands of deer is a major lift.Low prevalence (right now): When disease prevalence is near zero, mass testing tends to return very few positives, so agencies prioritize early detection in hotspots instead.Management strategy: Agencies often invest more in prevention (carcass transport rules, feeding bans, education) than broad surveillance.Hunter participation: “Free for all” testing can overwhelm systems unless tightly managed, and many states have learned that targeted programs get better data per dollar.So NYS is focusing its efforts on where they see it mattering most: high-risk areas, roadkills, sick/dead deer, and zones near known outbreaks—because testing every hunter-harvested deer statewide would be extremely expensive for relatively low yield in a state with no established CWD population.More info on NY's response, as well as what's happening nationally:The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation's page on CWD (including information on how you can help, scroll down to “Members of the Public”)CWD in Captive Deer: DEC's Response in 2024Chronic Wasting Disease Detection and Management: What Has Worked and What Has Not?

Based on data from 2023-24, roughly 23% of New Yorkers aged 21 or older reported cannabis use in the past 12 months. Although men generally have a higher prevalence of use than women, recent studies show a narrowing gap as female consumption rises. Despite this trend, research is sorely lacking on the impact of cannabis use on pregnancy, birth outcomes and overall health. Many advisory panels and organizations advise against the use of cannabis during pregnancy, but there are numerous reasons pregnant people choose to use. On today's episode, we'll talk through the evidence and provide best practices for caring for pregnant persons who use cannabis.  Related Content:  New York State Department of Health Clinical Guidelines Program Therapeutic Use of Medical Cannabis in New York State (October 2025): https://www.suguidelinesnys.org/guideline/med-cannabis/?mytab=tab_6/#pregnancy New York State Department of Health Office of Cannabis Management Cannabis Considerations for Pregnant and Breastfeeding/Chest Feeding Individuals (2022): https://cannabis.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2022/07/cannabis-considerations-for-pregnant-and-breastfeeding-chestfeeding-individuals-fact-sheet_v2.pdf New York State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Brief (November 2024-05): https://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/brfss/reports/docs/2024-05_brfss_cannabis_use.pdf New York State Office of Cannabis Management Cannabis Education Library: https://cannabis.ny.gov/education Zolotov Y, Mendoza Temple L, Isralowitz R, et al.

February 5 was the NYS budget hearing on human services, including public assistance, children, and seniors. A major focus is the Governor's $1.7 billion proposal to expand various child care programs. The proposals also expands the state's child tax credit to $1,500 per child per year. Unfortunately, as has been true for two decades, the Governor proposed no increase in the welfare grant which now leaves family far below the poverty line and unable to obtain safe and adequate housing. We hear from Rebecca Preve of the Association of Aging in NY; Rebecca Zangen of the Supportive Housing Network of New York; Krista Hesdorfer of Hunger Solutions NY; and Dede Hill of the Schuyler Center for Analysis And Advocacy.

Effective February 19, 2026, New York State law permits clinicians to dispense up to 72 hours (equivalent to a 3-day supply) of controlled substances, such as methadone and buprenorphine, for the management of opioid withdrawal while arranging referral and linkage to care for persons with opioid use disorder, as authorized by federal regulations (specifically, the Code of Federal Regulations or CFR number 1306.07). The federal regulations were updated in August 2023, and New York State law is just now catching up. We informally refer to the update as “The 72-Hour Rule.” Featuring Dr. Linda Wang, this episode reviews what this update means for New York State and how clinicians and healthcare administrators can think about its implementation.

Starting a family often changes how people think about money, responsibility, and risk. The real challenge is not access to information, but turning it into clear action before small gaps become big problems. In this episode, Iván Watanabe and Russell J. Carpentieri, Founder and Managing Partner at OPUS Private Client, LLC,  walk through the foundational planning steps families should address as life becomes more complex. They focus on understanding cash flow, evaluating employee benefits, and identifying coverage gaps before making bigger financial decisions. The conversation highlights how simple check-the-box actions can reduce exposure, why wills are often overlooked, and how planning brings clarity when expenses and responsibilities grow. Key takeaways: How cash flow clarity creates better decisions as family expenses grow Why employee benefits are often the fastest starting point for coverage How to think through insurance needs using real math instead of guesses Why non-working spouses still represent significant economic value The risks families face when wills and basic documents are delayed And more!

Today, on the Hudson Mohawk Magazine, First, Mark Dunlea brings us coverage of the NYS budget hearings on transportation. Then, roaming labor correspondent WIllie Terry speaks with Jamaica Miles, founder of All of Us at the Reclaim MLK Day 2026: A Day of Action, Education & Resistance” event at the First United Methodist Church in Schenectady. Later on, on the Triple Es, H Bosh Jr speaks with Analusette Shalello, founder of DNA Bodyworx LLC.

Finally, Moses Nagel reports on Troy City Council, where the incoming democratic majority has introduced a new local law, Good Cause Eviction, for public hearing.

On Tuesday Feb 3, the state legislature held a public hearing on the transportation portion of the state budget. There was a surprising lack of testimony advocating increased funding for mass transit, though the NYS association for Public Transportation submitted written comments, mainly focused on the underfunding of mass transit update. The State provided $245.5 million in capital aid to non-MTA systems in FY 2025-26. The Executive Budget proposes a reduction to $223.5 million. With aging assets and rising costs, investment must grow to avoid worsening infrastructure conditions. The American Public Transportation Association estimates that you can save over $13,000 annually by using public transit instead of driving. Overall, Unmet transportation needs in New York State center on gaps in rural transit, limited "last-mile" service, and inadequate access for seniors and people with disabilities, particularly for medical and work-related travel. The MTA seemed relatively pleased with its funding, noting that 2025 was the biggest year ever for capital commitments -- $15.8 billion. More than $5 billion of that came from congestion pricing. Other speakers noted that state funding for the passenger rail program is currently smaller than it was during the Pataki Administration. In this segment we hear mainly about safe streets and accessibility issues for individuals with disability. First is Amy Cohen of Families for Safe Streets. Followed by Elizabeth Adams of Transportation Alternatives, Christopher Grief of the ADA Accessibility Transportation Group and Alexandra Mikowski of Access to Independence of Cortland County

Milestones are supposed to shine. SNL's 100th did something stranger: it skipped a host, stacked cameos, and unintentionally made flogging history when Paul Shaffer became the first person to drop the F bomb during the live broadcast.For the first time, Saturday Night Live goes without a proper host, relying instead on a slew of cameos. From Michael O'Donoghue and John Belushi (twice!) to Ralph Nader, Michael Palin, and NYS senator Daniel Moynihan - apparently NOT related to Bobby - who pops up twice. And, if you look closely, current Paul Simon girlfriend Carrie Fisher sneaks into a sketch.  All of which add to a show that while entertaining, often feels discombobulated.But don't worry!  Friend of the show Paul Simon returns (of course) to sing a few songs alongside James Taylor (who also appears in a sketch). And, in keeping with this episode's spirit of sharing the wealth, SNL-bandmember David Sanborn also plays a song.Happy 100th, SNL!  Here's to 900 more!!---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!
