Extreme Awesome: CDC Launches Zombie Apocalypse Survival Guide

As part of a campaign designed to teach Americans survival tips in case of a natural disaster/disease outbreak, the Center for Disease Control released a tongue-in-cheek guide detailing what we should when the dead come back.



"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."

Right!  Like any of THAT shit would help.  I saw 28 Days, I know what's up.
