You ve seen it on TV or in the movies: zombies walking down empty streets looking for a human to snack on. Ever wonder what you would need to do to survive a zombie apocalypse? Well, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has you covered.
OK, so no, the CDC doesn t
actually think that there will be a zombie apocalypse. But as TV shows like
The Walking Dead have risen in popularity in recent years, and as more people began wondering what they should do if zombies were to start roaming the streets, the CDC decided to create a Zombie Preparedness page where they could go for answers. As it turns out what first began as a tongue-in-cheek campaign to engage new audiences with preparedness messages has proven to be a very effective platform, according to the CDC. We continue to reach and engage a wide variety of audiences on all hazards preparedness via zombie preparedness.
