Kuru, the laughing sickness
Kuru causes mood instability, giving pawns chance of various mental breaks, inluding severe Laughing fits.
It also debilitates pawns, making ordinary tasks a bit more difficult.
But most importantly, it literally eats the brain. It does cause brain damage over time, both causing pain and consciousness loss.
Eventually, killing pawn because their brain is just not there anymore.
Spead vectors
Of course, if you eat actual, known, kuru carrier, you will be infected.
But meat of any human that partakes in cannibalism - has ideologion that permits eating humans is not out of question: kuru is endemic to cultures practicing cannibalism.
Some pawns will tell you they only have cravings and would like a taste, but did they already? Pawn that Cannibal trait or hasever eaten human meat can be rarely vector. One might not want to risk that.
Kuru is prion infection, so cooking meat will not prevent transmition. Be carefull about that human meat kibble.
Treatment options
If you can be on top of brain damage, your pawn can lead a long, productive life full of laughter.
Use any method that can heal permanent scars.
You can also just destroy brain completely and revive pawn.
