The disease in deer and elk is called chronic wasting disease or cwd.
This
sounds better than the infamous "mad cow disease", however they are
closely
related. I hunted Colorado this fall and they go into great detail on how
to
safely handle the meat. To date, there are no known cases of humans
contacting the disease.
As for diseased fish, thats all nonsense as far as I can tell. However, if
someone read it on the internet, it must be true!

Sick fish are a major concern. The sick get into the wild and spread alien
to the region disease. The farm raised salmon are Atlantic salmon, and
being raised on the west coast bring other disease to the pacific salmon.
The massive decline in Southern California abalone was from Japanese abalone
that were planted by an abalone farm, spreading "withering food" disease.
And those sardines that were fed to cows are changed to different formula by
the cow.
