Although each zombie attack is different, as the number, terrain, reaction
common populace, and so on., Level of intensity could be
classified into four levels.
CLASS 1
This is a low-level eruption, usually in a third country
world or in a rural area of \u200b\u200bthe first world. The number of zombies
in this class of outbreak ranges between one and twenty.
human casualties total (including those infected) range from one to fifty.
The total duration from the first event until the last (known)
varies between twenty-four hours and fourteen days. The infected area is small, not exceeding forty-kilometer radius.
In many cases, natural boundaries will determine its limits.
response will be light, or exclusively civilian or some extra support from the
local law enforcement. Media coverage will be slight, if
presented. If the media are present, look for common stories like homicides or
"accidents." This is the most common
outbreaks and also the easiest to go unnoticed.
CLASS 2 Urban or rural areas populated included in this
eruption level. The total number of zombies will vary between twenty and hundred
. The total number of human casualties may reach as much as several
hundreds. The duration of a Class 2 attack may last no longer than
a Class 1 outbreak. Sometimes the
more zombies will trigger an immediate response.
a sparsely populated rural outbreak may extend to a radius of
hundred miles, while an urban outbreak may encompass only several blocks
. Looking for an answer, albeit low, additional
military, the National Guard in the United States or its equivalent
abroad. Most often, and by the
ease panic, these units will take a non-combatant role,
providing medical assistance, crowd control and logistical support
. Class 2 outbreaks almost always attract the press. A
not be that the attack occurs in an area isolated from
truly world, reported the story. This does not mean without
however, that the story will be told accurately.
CLASS 3
A real crisis. Class 3 outbreaks, more than any other,
demonstrate the clear threat posed by the living dead.
Zombies will number in the thousands, encompassing an area of \u200b\u200bseveral
hundreds of miles. The duration of the attack and a possible prolonged
cleaning process may take several months. No
opportunity for a darkening or concealment of the press.
Even without media attention, the enormity of the attack will leave too many eyewitnesses
. This is a full-fledged battle,
with law enforcement replaced by units
regular army. It declared a state of emergency in the infected area, the
as in neighboring areas. Expected martial law, restricted travel, rationed supplies
, services nationalized
strict monitoring and communications. All these measures, however,
will take time to implement. The initial phase will be chaotic
while those in power to take control of the crisis.
Riots, looting and widespread panic will add to their
difficulties, further delaying an effective response. While this happens
those who are living in infected areas will
at the mercy of the undead. Isolated, abandoned and surrounded by monsters
only depend on themselves. CLASS 4
(See "Living in a World no dead ")
DETECTION
Every undead outbreak, regardless of class, has a
start. Now that the enemy has been defined, the next step is
early warning. Knowing what which is a zombie will not help if you
able to recognize an outbreak before it's too late
. This does not entail building a "zombie Operations Center"
in the basement, stick pins in a map and stacked
around the shortwave radio. All it takes is to watch for signs
be overlooked by the untrained mind.
1.Homicidios in which the victims were killed by decapitation or
headshots. It has happened many times: The
people recognize an outbreak for what it really is and takes matters into his own hands
. Almost always, these people are declared murderers
by local authorities and prosecuted as such.
missing, particularly in wilderness or uninhabited areas
. Pay special attention to whether one or more members of the search team
end up missing too. If the story is televised or photographed
, provides attention to see what level of armament
carry items of rescue. More than a rifle
group could indicate that this is more than a simple rescue operation
.
3.Casos of "violent insanity" in which the subject attacked
family or friends without the use of weapons. Find out if the attacker bit or tried to bite
victims. If so, did any of the victims
is still in the hospital? Try to find out if any of the victims died
days after the bite.
4.Motines or other civil disturbances that began without provocation or other logical cause
. Common sense will dictate that violence
any level in a group does not occur by
good without a catalyst, such as racial tension, political actions or decisions
legal. Even so-called "mass hysteria" can always be traced to a
root cause. If you can not find any, the answer may rest
anywhere.
5.Muertes based disease in which the cause is undetermined
or seems highly suspect.
deaths infectious disease are rare in the industrialized world,
compared to a century ago. For this reason, outbreaks
always come on the news. Look for those cases in which
the exact nature of the disease is unexplained. It also remains vigilant about suspicious explanations
such as West Nile virus disease or "mad cow disease." Both could be examples of a cover
.
6. Any of the above in which
coverage was banned. A news blackout is rare in the United States
. Occurs a must be regarded as an immediate red flag
. Of course, there may be many other reasons besides
an undead attack. Nevertheless,
any event causing a government so aware of the media
like ours, to remove something,
deserves close attention. The truth, than it is, can not be
good.
Once an event has met with your sensors, stay much the same
. Record the location and distance from where you
. Pay attention to similar incidents around or near the original site
. If, within days or weeks, these incidents occur
, study them carefully. Record the response of
enforcement and other government agencies. If
react more strongly with each incident, chances are that you are developing an outbreak
