Its an ill wind that brings no good.

Well all I've heard is that 'hunting is inherently dangerous and generally results in vast amounts of time and money being spent on rescuing silly hunters' This being pushed by the Police stance.
I wouldn't mind the current ban on hunting if it was balanced by some correct advice to the public that closed the obvious infection transmission pathways instead of just hand wringing about hand washing
