    I imagine that the need for a strong-willed bitten person who is, as you say, fighting off the virus, would help them get the one thing everyone needs to make it out of this apocalypse alive: Antibodies.
    As the body begins to fight off the zombie infection, antibodies would be created, even if it isn't enough to save their life. But there would be antibodies- antibodies that they can then somehow give to embryos so they grow up being immune to the virus.

    As someone from Omaha, looking back at what Matt said back in the video about where to hide in the zombie apocalypse Nebraska is a pretty good place to hide out. In more rural areas there are natural sources of fresh water, plenty of farm land, and very few people. In addition there are a couple of military bases where you could hide out. Did a whole paper on the subject when I was in high school

    • @IIIGioGioStarIII
      @IIIGioGioStarIII Před rokem

      I wouldn't hide in the bases. Most likely they would be swarmed because there would be too many people inside trying to be safe and in the beginning, chances are, the soldiers would have had to deal with civilians trying to break in when they are given orders to NOT allow anybody in.

    Nebraska to Philly 1400 miles. A person can walk about 20 miles a day with sleep, eating and breaks, but that is a lot of walking. They would have to walk straight for 70 days with no interruptions which would be unlikely. So I would actually take it to 15 miles a day. That would take 93 days. 3 month of straight walking. Doubt some kids could ever make that.

    You're ALMOST right about the meaning behind "A" and "B", Matpat.
    A doesn't JUST mean strong LEADER, it's more just a strong willed person. They're a fighter.
    Back in season 4/season 5 when the Terminus cannibals captured and hunted down Rick and the gang, they threw them in train car A. Then at father Gabriel's church, they painted the letter A on the side of the building as well.
    Then later in season 5, we saw the kid Sam putting stamps on a few of the character's hands, labeling them as "A" too. He sensed that they survived out beyond the walls and they're *strong fighters*.

    • @HiturMan-nn5pc
      @HiturMan-nn5pc Před 3 lety +24

      The A in season 5 was for Alexandria though, im pretty sure a random kid doesnt have a connection to a whole secret military operation
      In regards to terminus, its a really interesting idea, but they too surely had no contact with the CRM.
      I agree its strong willed person but there probably isnt a connection between these cases, maybe besides the writers dropping hints, which would be cool if so

      Though if you ask me, it could be plausible, it would have to be something that was introduced to the populace that could effect every current functioning person. While at the same time it has no effect on people that already perished (Which cuts out Traditional Zombies rising from the grave kind of thing.)

      @@WillisVision yes, but the ratio between how many people are born in the apocalypse vs before apocalypse is a lot lower, so a large portion of the zombies should just die out. In time of a global apocalypse people dont spread quickly enough for new zombie hordes to emerge, but a good twist to this story wise would be if animals started to get sick and we'd see some undead animal hoards heading towards civilization.

      You’re not wrong but you’re also assuming there’s still huge amounts of zombies. Also we are assuming how much of the world actually died out. The group might just want to make sure people die and stay dead and continue their research so that the world can flourish again.

      @@project_X_design There is a show from the 70's on the BBC called "The Survivors". It's basically the Waling Dead but really well thought out in terms of science and politics. Really thought provoking. One episode had the man basically kidnapping and force breeding every woman he encounters. At first you see him as a monster with this massive compound full of women he and his men impregnated. Part of what made this show horrifying is they use real science and try to show the most likely scenario that can actually play out.Turns out this man is a doctor and researcher, and found something terrible when he ran the numbers. if there was a MASSIVE die off of humans that dropped the population below 10%, the remaining 10% will have less than a generation to repopulate the gene pool or there would be no chance for the species to come back at all. The science is a bit complex and detailed by the man is perfectly correct (A monster still but correct). With the Walking Dead, the bigger issue is not enough genetic material left in humanity to reclaim itself especially with an ongoing threat. You have to factor in our ability to reproduce with a low mortality rate is becuase of access to medical care. Before modern medicine child death was EXTREMELY HIGH, hence why people had large families.
      The walkers should be gone at this point. Humanity should be far more regressed. Even if everyone tried to have a kid, there will be many babies that die. Not enough kids in a generation will lead to a population collapse due to lack of large enough gene pool.
