Someone who carrying a disease but not infected by it would act different from a regular person.

Because I've been posting in this thread and haven't been stating what I would do I will now.

Either roam the mountains near my House, or Defend my house until I am absolutely surrounded and have barely little ammunition. I will shoot myself then and hope I don't get infected.

Then if I am turned into a Zombie, invade Survivors till I get my brains blown out

If you can't beat'em, join'em.

Context: I'm living in a state ranked in the top 5 population wise, so right there the odds are stacked against me surviving as a non-zombie for long. In addition, where I live is one of four/five population clusters where the majority of my state's population is concentrated so between the former and having 2+ million potential zombies within 50 miles of me, you do the math for my odds of surviving.

So, if it comes down between a potential painful and horrible death of being eaten alive by zombies or choosing how and when I'll go, I'll take the choice every time.

At least as a zombie, I'd still be technically alive and on the off chance a cure is developed, there's hope verses what the alternatives probably are/would be.

On the other hand, with the way my weird luck works I'd probably be one of the first ones infected early on or I'm immune. Either way, you're all so screwed.

Not me :).

I didn't buy dozens of olive oil bottles for nothing! I will first purchase a chainmail (Y'know, the ones used for lancing in Medieval
England), fuse a katana to one of its gauntlets and then I will wear the chainmail and pour the olive oil on every centimeter of the
armour, before wearing a pair of army boots to avoid slipping and voila! The zombies will have a hard time catching this slippery
canned food and I will also be able to cut their heads while they can not even bite me :).

Shaun of the Dead style, or go like this:

Grab all the big knives from your kitchen as soon as I'm sure the outbreak will reach me. Then I'd pack food and bottled water (I wouldn't drink any water that wasn't sealed before the oubreak as it could contain the disease), and head for the nearest gun store. An armed midnight raid to steal guns and ammo (as long as you run you'll probably get away with it as the police is preparing for a zombie invasion).

Know I'm prepared for some action, head to the nearest port. Raid a local supermarket and grab all the long lasting foods and more water. Steal a small-medium sized motorized boat (I'll work out how to drive it quickly enough) and set course for the most isolated islands you can think of.
The chances of me pulling something like this off at the moment are probably 1/1,000,000. In a zombie apocalypse, more like 50-50. The police won't care about break-ins, security guys will most likely fuck off and go solo, most people will hand over their boat as they think they'll die anyway and an un-inhabited island can't be infected.

The point is that there are no zombies in the deep wilderness. Good luck clearing the prison of zombies in the first place, or foraging outside it's walls for food and supplies, or holding off unending waves.

I'll take "not being where the enemy is" for the win.

Nah, the prison is a pretty legit option. They're designed to be difficult to get into or out of, and to keep the people already inside in one place. The guards are already trained and equipped to suppress violence among the prisoners, up to a point. The prisoners have every motivation to cooperate with the guards, the better to actually stay alive during the zombie apocalypse and maybe be granted their freedom afterwards. If there is an afterwards. There'd probably be some medical staff on hand too, who'd be better than most at diagnosing any infectees. They'd have food, too. Prisons have a lot going for them.


Nope. Either the guards and/or prisoners are running the place as a fortress, in which case you are shot as you try to approach, or it's a big empty complex, in which case you can't run it by yourself while still keeping a lookout, much less

Best case scenario, you're let into the fortress society, but the prison, which was not chosen with "good farmland" in mind, has no food, supplies, etc after a month or two, and everyone dies. That is, if the zombies haven't figured out a way in, and if the residents haven't all killed each other first.

Besides, living out your days in peace, not having to fight zombies is a much better option then living in a building in the middle of the horde with zombies constantly wandering in. Besides, without the proper infrastructure, you don't get water or power, and that building is going to start breaking down without regular maintenance.

You can't be thinking in terms of days or weeks or months, but of decades.

Will 4 guns and the ammo in your house last forever?
