You actually literally can't kill prions, they aren't alive, they're basically the virus debate's bastard older brother with a rap sheet that's just a list of all the people they've sent to the hospital, and then followed up bankrupting the hospital because literally everything that victim touched has to be scrapped because hospitals usually don't have the tools required to break down prions enough for it to be safe to keep anything that might have gotten the patient's prions on it.
Misfolded proteins if I remembered right, and Auroclaves (and tools that can survive it) probably ain't cheap.
Surgical tools can be autoclaved, not really big things like beds.
The definition makes it sound like a fancy pressure cooker.
Guess we can just use a really heavy duty pressure cooker to cook the stuff before composting it?
