Zombie Apocalypse

I feel so much better.


"If zombies did start roaming the streets, CDC would conduct an investigation much like any other disease outbreak. CDC would provide technical assistance to cities, states, or international partners dealing with a zombie infestation. This assistance might include consultation, lab testing and analysis, patient management and care, tracking of contacts, and infection control (including isolation and quarantine). It’s likely that an investigation of this scenario would seek to accomplish several goals: determine the cause of the illness, the source of the infection/virus/toxin, learn how it is transmitted and how readily it is spread, how to break the cycle of transmission and thus prevent further cases, and how patients can best be treated. Not only would scientists be working to identify the cause and cure of the zombie outbreak, but CDC and other federal agencies would send medical teams and first responders to help those in affected areas (I will be volunteering the young nameless disease detectives for the field work).

That reminds me, I need to pick up a little more ammo. I have also been researching building a DIY flamethrower. But I might just have to settle for large caliber rounds.

I wonder how zombies do at altitude.

I will protect you and you family from zombies guaranteed, prices start at1500.00 per household.

Because they are not living, would the change in pressure make them inflate like a potato chip bag does? Perhaps they would explode.
