Science proves Zombies would herald the end of civilisation.

[derek]

I laughed into my morning tea. Weird article.

If zombies actually existed, an attack by them would lead to the collapse of civilisation unless dealt with quickly and aggressively.

That is the conclusion of a mathematical exercise carried out by researchers in Canada.

They say only frequent counter-attacks with increasing force would eradicate the fictional creatures.

The scientific paper is published in a book - Infectious Diseases Modelling Research Progress.

Professor Robert Smith? (the question mark is part of his surname and not a typographical mistake) and colleagues wrote:

Haha wtf?

Oh, I should have just kept my trap shut and continued reading.

Weird nonetheless. I think it's a bit obvious that it's not Robert Smith of the Cure.

 

[Shpongled]

haha no shit, and I'm sure there are plenty of other Robert Smith's out there. Methinks Robert Smith? might be a little full of himself

Read The Walking Dead. It will make you want to kill yourself.

 

[Shpongled]

Haha rad, I will get right on that!

Yay Canada.

I love how they talk about it being similar to a large disease outbreak, but then they sneak this in:

"My understanding of zombie biology is that if you manage to decapitate a zombie then it's dead forever. So perhaps they are being a little over-pessimistic when they conclude that zombies might take over a city in three or four days," he said.

Goes to how ya that Scientists have a sense of humor.

My old boss was called Robert Smith, and rather than add a question mark he just asked people to call him Bob or Bobby Smith.

My ideal world would be a mix of Fallout and zombies.

Fallout's Ghouls vs. Zombies

I really need to start reading World War Z
