Zombie Apocalypse Gives Humans Just 100 Days to Live, Scientists Reveal

The zombie virus would spread through the human population at a rate faster than the black death, according to a study from UK scientists.

Once introduced on Earth, the zombie virus would condemn the human population to extinction in less than six months, scientists at Leicester University (UK) have calculated. Assuming that a zombie can find one person each day, and has a 90 percent success rate in infecting victims with the virus, the researchers found that humans would be facing extinction after just 100 days. On day 100 there would be just 273 human survivors, outnumbered a million to one by zombies.

It's from Sputnik, but it's still interesting. I find these studies intriguing despite how fatalist they are, they always seem to leave out the human element when it comes to survival. Resilience, ingenuity, compassion, etc. are rarely factored in the equation,
