[Fwd: FW: [riskanal] FW: Comparative risks of disease transmission]

[Jeff Hayward <jeff.hayward@ncmail.net>]

Hello,



I have been researching the likelihood for disease transmission

following incineration or burial of BSE or hoof-and-mouth affected

animals. Although I wouldn't have thought this would be a topic for

RADSAFE, the text below suggests it may have been a tag-along item to

another discussion. Is there an easy way I can search the RADSAFE

archives for reference to this topic?



Thanks

Jeff Hayward

There has been a discussion of this on the RADSAFE newsgroup.  I think

the 

subject line has been something like "animal burial" vs. "nuke dumps". 

You 

may want to track down the digest form of this and see what folks have

had 

to say.  I'm sure much of it will be garbage (the original thread

started 

about complaining how nuke waste is dumped, but diseased animals get 

buried), but some of it may be of interest.  I didn't follow it very 

carefully, but I do remember folks talking about the chances of

incineration 

dispersing the virus - again, I wasn't following it very carefully.



Unfortunately, the list moved and is now with Dr. Stabin at vanderbilt -

his 

email address is:  owner-radsafe@list.vanderbilt.edu.



I don' tknow if they have a radsafe archive that you can search.  But it

is 

a start.



Sorry I can't be more helpful

Colleagues:



Is anyone aware of information on comparative risks for disease

transmission

using

the various means of animal carcass disposal following BSE and/or

 hoof-and-mouth

outbreaks? Specifically, we are interested in comparing the risks of

incineration

versus mass burial. Any reference to reports on the matter or even

 professional

opinion would be greatly appreciated.
