Same scientists who proclaim global warming is real. As for me, stock up on 12ga. stuff.

For most Americans, heading to the hills only means that while zombies won’t kill you, a thousand other things will, primarily the inability to provide for yourself food and shelter.

If there were a zombie apocalypse, you only need to last until the zombies decompose away into nothing. A few weeks at the most.

Essentially, they used a realistic model that's very similar to the way epidemiologists calculate... Essentially, GIGO.

I really don ‘t think it takes a “disease model” to establish the patently obvious.

Amazing that so much time is wasted talking about this topic as though it were real!
Or am I wrong-thinking and it’s just for fun?

"I'd love to see a fictional account where most of New York City falls in a day, but upstate New York has a month or so to prepare," Alemi said in the APS press release.
Except that is is Los Angeles, that is what AMC's
Fear the Walking Dead is trying to show. The 'virus' inflicted LA and within 11 days, it had spread to several other states.

I’ve barely survived seven years of the zombie apocalypse that brought millions of dumb voters to the polls to vote for the cool black guy twice.

Those headed out of the infected cities will be shot on sight by those trying to protect the areas outside the disease zones.

You’re pretty much screwed anyway, unless you happen to be a friend of Sheriff Rick.
And even then, you’re chances aren’t too good.

A zombie apocalypse would last about 2 weeks. Then maggots and carrion birds would clean up the mess.

If - or when - the zombie apocalypse comes, those of us in big cities are in trouble, according to research presented at the American Physical Society March meeting on March 5, 2015. They say "zombie apocalypse comes" because they don't dare say "EBT cards stop working"...but we all know what they mean. :)

Epidemiology can be fun if you have a really warped sense of humor. A professor I used to know liked to horrify his students with a mysterious model of infection that turned out to be what happened with STD's when the number of sex partners began to increase. NOT welcome news to the undergrads.
This isn't new titillation. Daniel Defoe took his uncle's notes and wrote A Journal of the Plague Year in 1722, and it's still pretty interesting reading. Albert Camus' The Plague was an extensive examination of human behavior under that sort of stress - he denied, with considerable justification, that it was even an existentialist novel. I'm guessing, based on this, that the genre will be with us for awhile. And it indicates that although walking-dead zombies aren't real (however much fun it would be) societal breakdown and changes in human behavior faced with widespread threats to survival are. Laughing that off is whistling through a graveyard.
Oh, where I said zombies aren't real? I lied.
