Zombie attack would be the death of us: study

University of Ottawa mathematicians used mathematical models of how pandemics spread to determine how well we would handle a zombie outbreak. The conclusion? Not well unless a strategic eradication of zombies in enacted early in the epidemic or, as they put it "Hit hard and hit often". In that case, the epidemic could be broken in as little as 10 days. The scenario assumed that both the living and the "newly dead" could be infected. They also discovered that neither quarantines nor curing the disease would be enough to save humankind.
