if you were on vacation in egypt and the zombies came after you, but they were shufflers, you could outrun them but you had to go into the desert without any supplies. and they are always a few minutes behind you in shambling pursuit. no rest, water, food, shelter or anything to do but run
i live in a valley with less than 20k people and that's including the 3 or 4 surrounding towns...
the worst place would be my old home city...i think over 2 million now...
then again...you could estimate that about...what, 5-10% of the 20k would be survivors (ok, i dunno what the estimate would be but...)...thats still a lot of zeds to deal with...best thing to do is let all the screamers run outta town n let the zeds follow them as you huddle in your house with your mouth shut...lol
I am stuck taking care of a sick friend. AIDS, not flu. I find myself in a high rise in downtown Cincinnati. I've got 6 floors of apartments and an underground garage that I can ransack.
Before I leave the sancuary of her apartment,I take a look around:
I come up with a broom stick (which I carve into a point with a kitchen knife), a metal garbage can lid (make shift shield, thank you SCA fighter training), and said kitchen knife.
Out the door I go with a rebel yell...........
Wish me luck-
Worse possible outbreak scenario... Your at the Olympics when the infection starts hitting the crowds and the athletes. Just imagine the hundreds of thousands of spectators turning at once. Plus the worlds fastest runners probably make the worlds fastest zombies. I would recommend grabbing a pole vaulting pole and start spearing heads....
That is great. In a rather awful way.
Another bad place along the same lines as what you said would be an arena concert. Especially if you were in the general admission area.
Also, being in an airplane that had an outbreak would be bad. Once the pilots became infected you would be sol. And there are very few weapons available on a plane.
