The Zombie Apocalypse

The first instinct that every living thing is born with is survival. Animals will do anything it takes in order to live as long as they can, and that includes people. In normal circumstances, people have access to many different resources that help them to survive, such as hospitals and grocery stores that supply food and water. But in extreme circumstances, in which there is not a readily available food supply or educated doctors to help with injuries and illnesses, most people would struggle to last more that a couple of weeks. One of these circumstances could possibly be the zombie apocalypse, which could happen at any time without the general population even realizing it is happening.

In this case, have an idea of where to travel to next, whether it is near the same location or across many miles, another safe …show more content…
Some people cannot fathom a time where society’s structure could collapse and the world could be overrun by the undead. Admittedly, the idea of corpses being turned into zombies is absurd as there is no real scientific proof or reasoning to back up such a situation. There has never been an epidemic outbreak that has the ability to turn people into mindless walking corpses, and with today’s medical resources, most likely never will. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility for a new, unknown disease to have zombie-like symptoms. The world is much more open to itself than it has ever been with all the trading and traveling that people
