>> within a year of an EMP event at least 2 thirds or the us population will perish from starvation, disease and social collapse
Nonsense.
With all the dead bodies lying around, impossible to bury them all, you can be sure the fatality rate for everyone else would increase exponentially. Disease, contaminated water supply, etc..
“>> within a year of an EMP event at least 2 thirds or the us population will perish from starvation, disease and social collapse”
Only within blue cities.
Correct. It would be way over 90%, and in much less than a year.
You are so screwed.
When one considers a near total loss of modern medical care, food and energy distribution...and the roving bands of zombies, 2/3 is not so far fetched.
You can starve to death in 100 days or less.
Dysentery is often a fatal disease without drugs and sanitation.
I can only surmise you believe the damage to these systems would not be as dire as the pundits suspect?
