CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Conclusion

...following the CDC's guidelines for assembling an emergency preparedness kit and listening on the radio for instructions about where the nearest designated safe zone is...
It was all a dream???
Here I was, congratulating the CDC on a job well-done and they have to pull the ultimate cliche out of their butts?
And how can someone dream about simultaneous events in other locations (like CDC headquarters) involving people he/she has never met?
I'll let it go since it does serve the purpose of informing the public in an entertaining manner!
But if this were an episode of Walking Dead...

CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Part 2

...it's a pandemic that causes the infected to become zombies!
Do we really have to explain that?
It's not like zombies haven't become pop culture mainstays or anything like that!
But fear not!
Snark aside, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are on the case...
Mind you, the CDC does not advise you to drive recklessly, but, under the circumstances, it'll be forgiven!
Will our unnamed couple survive the zombie apocalypse due to being prepared by following CDC guidelines?
To Be Concluded
Thursday!

Monday Madness / CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Part 1

While we're not facing a zombie pandemic...
...this comic, created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention presents good ideas for preparing for any pandemic, including the one we're presently experiencing!
It's a clever use of the obsession with zombies currently permeating pop culture (and I say this as someone who saw the original Night of the Living Dead in a theatre on 42nd Streen in NYC) to offer parallels between fictional and potentially-real situations, and showing how to prepare for them in an entertaining way!
(I say this as someone who saw the original Night of the Living Dead in a theatre on 42nd Street in NYC and wondered what took the rest of the world to catch up!)
To Be Continued
Tomorrow!
