USA today investigated this and called on a number of reputable agencies and specialists to comment. They all said the same thing. There are no reports of prion disease following vaccination and the claims are false. They added that Classen simply has not provided any standard of proof and the paper was criticised for its lack of rigor, not peer reviewed and published in a journal that does not have a high degree of scientific credibility. To the non-specialist however, his paper looks credible, so here's the reference to the USA today article and references you can check out.

"This afternoon it was off to Pāuatahanui for a kingfisher hunt with a husband who is very good at taking my hints about it being a beautiful day whilst staring at the birds that were flying around outside!
The kingfishers were certainly in the usual place, but not really being social with each other as they were on our previous trip.
I waded out in my wellies but couldn't really get as close to them as I would have wanted to! Here are a few shots of them on various bits of driftwood, some with crabs in their mouths, some without! It was lovely to also capture the spoonbills coming into land to have a feed."
