I wonder if by "dead people", whoever wrote that, was referring to "soulless clones" or "bio-androids" and by "coming out of the ground" meant coming out of underground secret bases....

Traditionally, MD's and scientists have been Aunt-Nelly-nervous about preserving their reputations/dignity/status. They have tended to avoid outrageous fantasy like the plague. from: [link to en.wikipedia.org] "According to a 2009 Carleton University and University of Ottawa epidemiological analysis, an outbreak of even Living Dead's slow zombies "is likely to lead to the collapse of civilization, unless it is dealt with quickly." Based on their mathematical modelling, the authors concluded that offensive strategies were much more reliable than quarantine strategies, due to various risks that can compromise a quarantine. They also found that discovering a cure would merely leave a few humans alive, since this would do little to slow the infection rate." Why would the CDC do this, also taken from article linked above: "On May 18, 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published an article on Rear Admiral Ali S. Khan's blog instructing the public on what to do to prepare for a zombie invasion. While the article did not claim that such a scenario was likely, it did use the popular culture appeal as a means of having individuals prepare for all potential hazards, such as earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods." One can talk all one will about their wanting their pronouncements being topical and intereresting and popular. If something isn't afoot, or hinted at, then the flouride in the water's finally disinhibited normally staid academics. |

Florida actually has this document: [link to www.okeechobeeeoc.com] And does anybody here dares to answer why this zombie-apocalypse type scenario is being discussed in the website of AMERICAN GULF WAR VETERANS ASSOCIATION??? (...)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)(...)

So it must be a HUGE psy-op, 'cuz some company's vehicles are even fabricating and selling special cars for zombie-apocalypse scenarios: Now that the Centers for Disease control has warned Americans to prepare for a possible “Zombie Apocalypse,” it may be a good time to rethink your upcoming automobile purchase. Quoting: [link to www.foxnews.com] If Hollywood has thought us anything over the years it’s that, while they are very susceptible to baseball bats, zombies are adept at jumping on cars and breaking through their windows in order to eat the brains of their occupants. Not to fear, there’s one vehicle that should keep your noggin intact. The Knight XV from Conquest Vehicles wasn’t designed with the undead in mind (at least we don’t think that it was) but the mega-SUV is perfectly suited to the task at rotting hand.

Difference between the two= minimal... other than the fact that the Rage type virus' infected would eventually die from illness and starvation. MANY TYPES OF HEMORRHAGIC FEVERS ACTUALLY CAUSE THE VICTIM (In advanced stages) TO BECOME VIOLENT, FLAIL ABOUT, ATTEMPT TO BITE MEDICAL WORKERS, FAMILY ETC... This phenomenon usually occurs at the exact same time the infected begins to "bleed out". This is fact folks. The virus somehow stimulates the victims brain in a manner that causes them to behave this way. [link to cydathria.com] |
