Title: Zombies may not be real - but if they are
Post by: vaskidmark on August 15, 2009, 06:11:18 PM
somebody has figured out how long it will take to either deal with them or be dealt with.

Target-rich environment in 3 - 2 - 1 ....

Whoopee, we're all gonna die!

stay safe.

Mathematical Model for Surviving a Zombie Apocalypse



The actions needed to survive a zombie outbreak in a city of 500,000.

Oh yes, somebody actually did a study on mathematics of a hypothetical zombie attack, and published it in a book on infectious disease. So, while we still don’t know what to do if a deadly asteroid takes aim at Earth, an unlikely but technically possible situation, we now know what to do in case of a zombie attack.

How fast do we need to deal with the outbreak? Here’s the equation they used, where S = susceptibles, Z = zombies and R = removed. If an infection breaks out in a city of 500,000 people, the zombies will outnumber the susceptibles in about three days.
I suggest you stockpile two rounds of .22LR for each person in your county, acquire at least two semi-auto .22 pistols and one semi-auto .22 rifle. Larger calibers are fine but you should still have the .22's so you can purge the earth of zombies quietly if necessary.

Cool. Lets just hope that this doesn't... or does  =D, evolve to affect humans.

Two pistols and one rifle? Amateurs.

It seems a lot of us were not so far fetched in making certain World War Z-type preparations.  =D

Just kidding. I'm not seriously paranoid about zombies. But just in case... :laugh:
