How Will You Be Ready?

So, the world has turned to shit, there's dead bodies walking around everywhere trying to eat other people. Naturally your reaction would be to freak. But, have no fear, the CDC is HERE . Yes folks, the CDC has published a zombie survival page. On here you can find a brief history of zombies, a very basic emergency kit, and a strategy for an emergency plan. As awesome as this is, i do have a few bones to pick. 

  First off, props to the CDC for making this page. I always wanted it to happen but never thought the government would care enough to actually do it. This page only reaffirms what i have been saying; the zombies are coming! But, the main problem with this page is that the CDC isn't taking this seriously! They poke fun at the idea of zombies; stating that it could never happen and what "you need to do before zombies…or hurricanes or pandemics for example, [that may] actually happen?" Well CDC, although you may be making fun of it, we'll see who has the last laugh when a zombie eats your face off. But i digress. they do offer a great survival kit that you can follow to prepare both yourself and your family. My only problem with this kit is that it has each person drinking a gallon of water a day. That is a lot of water for a post apocalyptic world. In reality, no one would really be this prepared unless they got a giant water tank attached to their house. Also, they mention to keep hold of "Important Documents (copies of your driver’s license, passport, and birth certificate to name a few)" In all seriousness, really CDC? Folks, in the event of a full scale, worldwide zombie apocalypse, the last thing you should be worrying about is your birth certificate. A zombie doesn't care if you're black or white, from Maine or Malibu, you're gonna get eaten. They only tell you to save these things so you feel like the government will still somehow have control over the situation when, in reality, they probably don't. But seriously, check it out, it's a pretty basic but solid list of basic survival gear.

  Next, the CDC tells you to establish an "Emergency Plan." Like where to meet up in case of an emergency and emergency contacts to call. Alright, this is where i call bullshit right here. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, there is no way i am going anywhere near windows or doors, let along leaving my house to go meet up with my neighbor who, in all likelihood, would try to eat me the second i said hi. 

  Personally, i only trust my list of supplies. My full list will be posted soon and I'll edit this post with a link to it. But, one of the main tools i want, and will get, is the American Red Cross Solarlink FR600 Eton Emergency Radio This is a fully loaded, self powering, and all around handy, survival device.

  So, all and all, the CDC can be helpful but only pay attention to the basic and know that you can always trust Zombie Knowhow for all your zombie survival needs. Remember to follow GBZomB on twitter for daily #zombiefacts and up-to-date postings.
