[QUOTE="Quigly, post: 1253659, member: 21929"] Correlations have been made between Johnes disease in cattle and Chrones disease in people, but it is not settled science, a lot of works need to be done to prove if there is or isn't a meaningful connection. Pasteurization is an effective method of killing Johnes, so the disease is not a concern in commercial milk production. Raw milk could potentially have some risk, but there are a host of other pathogens I would be more worried about. The greatest risk for nursing calves to pick up Johnes is through consumption of colostrum for an infected cow. It would be prudent not to keep those animals for replacements. [/QUOTE]
