Seems like 100% of people would eventually become a zombie. That's guaranteed new members on their side. A few zombies coming at you and its not as much of an issue, 10 or so and you may have an issue if you don't have a gun with a lot of ammo and remain calm. Have to keep in mind, you won't have a lot, or any, one shot kills. Unless you've been military trained and so forth. This ain't the movies, go out and go to a shooting range if you think you could hit target 100% of time. So sitting on roof and just plucking them off isn't really an option for nearly anyone. Then you have the fact that the world just shut down. Very quickly you have no food, water, electricity, heat, cooling, comfort, safety, etc. And its not just zombies, but other living people who will kill you to take your stored food/water/security/weapons and so forth. Then you take someone else's life and bam, they are a new zombie trying to eat you. Also you can't just assume they'll decay all quick. As they are not just lying around in the ground. They are mobile. so a lot of the decaying insects and whatnot won't be on them. It'll take a good couple months before natural decay will affect their mobility, but you have to remember that in that time n number of others have died and replaced them. Basically you'd need to have a safe, well stocked, secure place for at least six months. Hoping the hordes of 100's and 1000's of undead don't sniff or see you in that time as you won't be able to kill off a horde of more than say 15 unless you have a small army of well armed and decent shooting people. I know I'm missing other things here, like exhaustion, emotions of losing whole family and friends, people who simply fall apart and become a serious hindrance on your attempt at survival, and so forth. As well as the biggest issue for the majority of the world... lack of weapons. In US I could break into my neighbors houses and easily find guns and ammo in many of them. All you pansy ass girls in other countries are fucked. 'Merica... fuck yeah! |
I assumde we were talking about the traditional zombie virus. Which is spread by being bitten by a zombie and is essentially a form of rabies.
