AWKWARD ZOMBIE

is nothing easy?

Gather farmers, doctors and people like that, clear out a large area, make a home for ourselves, grow our own food and survive the years to come while slowly thinning out the zombies.

Also, not trusting most people.

So what if this is world wide infection the has contaminated water supplies. What do you do about that?

filter the daisies water

just stay at home

Go to my school and raid the medical closet.

Self train myself in field medicine.

Edit, also stay away from malls and hospitals

Suicide, realistically.

But I guess if I'm going to make an actual plan, it would involve moving north into the bombing range of the Air Force base. Get a camper from Dad, drive to the supermarket and gather supplies, break into the gun store and load up, grab as much bottled water as I can find and head north.

Contaminated water supply? That's what your piss is for, friends.

If all water supplies would be contaminated, I'd just kill myself immediately.

I'd probably become horribly depressed while trying to survive though, considering if a zombie apocalypse were to happen, we'd likely lose quite a bit of our modern knowledge due to lack of maintenance, people who know anything about it and things like that.

Depends on the nature of the contamination. If it's bacterial or parasitical, which imo seems more likely, odds are boiling it will make it safe for consumption.

Zombies have a poor ecological life strategy. While they may initially prosper due to high population densities and people being stupid, their prey and only method of reproduction is also their top predator.

Besides, if you're a parasite/microbe that uses a half-dead body for transmission and transport, well, you're losing a lot of reproductive capability compared to every other parasite out there that uses, you know, fully living bodies that can more easily spread the germs to others. Oh hey, don't we have those?

It should be easy to avoid infection by simply letting the disease take its course and getting well away from population centers. I'd recommend heading out into a big wilderness area, with plenty of supplies and tools for survival, and living off of hunting and gathering, perhaps some cultivation of crops as well. Within a year or two you should be fine to return to a post-apocalyptic world. It'd suck seeing everything you know and love being broken down, of course, but if enough people survive it may be possible to rebuild modern society. If not, we'd return to a hunter-gatherer lifestyle more suited to our low population density.

On the bright side, losing all that large-scale technology and infrastructure is a lot more sustainable in terms of resource use as long as overpopulation doesn't occur
