#4 Not Exactly Bird Flu17        Nature has devised some ingenious and horrifying ways to spread germs. Take measles, for example, which spreads by coughing and sneezing. It's a disease so contagious that around 90 percent of people who come into contact with an infected person will also become ill. It can live for around two hours outside the body, hanging in the air, just waiting for a hapless person to inhale it and start the replication process anew.18        On the other hand, a zombie outbreak would have to spread through an exchange of bodily fluids, like a deep bite. There is an array of issues with this method of contamination, starting with the fact that it's terribly inefficient.19        First, the zombie has to somehow grab a person long enough to inflict a bite. This is a tough proposition for a creature that may be missing an arm or leg, making it challenging to chase down terrified prey. Second, the act of biting consumes enormous amounts of time and energy, two things that rotting zombies do not have. Lastly, biting requires close physical contact with a victim. In a time when survivors will be ever-vigilant and hard to find, those cold and slow zombies will be hard-pressed to find victims.*1 pointA zombie outbreak would have to spread through an exchange of bodily fluidsIt would be difficult for the zombie virus to spread because zombies would not be fast or strong enough to catch & infect people.Measles is a disease so contagious that around 90 percent of people who come into contact with an infected person will also become ill.Zombie disease would spread quickly because of all the biting.
