I watched this documentary once on Netflix about plausible sources of the apocalypse and they surmised that the rabies virus could mutate and cause a zombie-like disease in humans. It would spread like wildfire through air borne salivary droplets at first and cover the globe quickly through international airplane travel. Then of course the last remaining remnants of humankind would catch it when the rest are all going mad and trying to eat each other, where it will spread through the saliva in the bites.
Sounds reasonable. Looks like I’m stocking up on ammo and canned goods this weekend. I need to play The Last of Us again for practice. I didn’t pay enough attention the first time to the technique for creating a passable shiv and nail bomb.

OK so we are leaving the EU today, any other day that's big big news. Now due to the corona virus and people being quarantined 1 mile from my house I couldn't give a sh£#.
Send them back. Send them back.

I remember when bird flu arrived in the UK and people were panicking. At the end of the day these type of viruses usually come from densely populated countries, especially those that play a bit fast and loose on general hygiene on animals. As long as your not old or have underlying health issues then it shouldn't be a worry.

The day of the actual apocalypse, so many gamers are gonna be scared and confused when they realise that crafting is far more involved than holding the cross button.
Remember, keep a couple slots of your inventory free for future upgrades!

@RogerRoger Yeah. I think I’m too lazy to take on crafting, even in the event of a zombie apocalypse. I’m more of a “run and hide” type of real life combatant. 😅
@Thrillho ...Waiting for the respawn back at the bonfire.

@Th3solution I'd be more of a direct-to-source kinda gatherer. Why loot a bunch of scraps to fashion a makeshift weapon when you can just get up a little earlier and loot a gun store?
Not that we have gun stores in the UK. My confused cultural identity would be my undoing, it seems!

I'm a transplant patient on immunosuppressants so I'm buggered. As long as I don't cark-it until after my 3rd playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 then it's cool.
@RogerRoger The town where I grew up did actually have a gun store, selling hunting rifles and shotguns. No idea if it still exists but in the zombie apocalypse scenario I can picture people holing up in there and subsisting on the fishing bait that was also sold.
