#15 Dress Appropriately
This might seem obvious or of little importance yet it may one day prove to be life-saving. When in undead territory, think practically - don’t make it easy for them. Tie long hair back or better yet cut it short. Avoid loose, baggy clothing that can be grabbed easily, whilst at the same time try to cover up as much as you can - although not crucial, it may help to prevent bites and scratches from breaking the skin (i.e. prevent infection). It may be worth wearing clothing with lots of pockets and compartments to store weapons etc. and any useful items you may come across along the way. Be sure to wear comfortable, durable shoes that allow for a quick escape.

Do the math....


Have a read of this interesting scientific paper written by Canadian researchers who have analysed the possible consequences of a zombie outbreak in terms of mathematical models of infection - full of doomsday equilibriums and outbreak scenarios.

#14 Choose your route wisely – When on the move, keep in mind that zombies may occupy unexpected areas (i.e. locations where non-infected individuals fear to tread or are normally unable to access). For example, since oxygen intake is no longer an essential requirement for the undead, they may even be found lurking in the watery depths of ponds and lakes etc – even in perilous environments they may still be functional (as long as the brain is still intact). It is important to note that certain factors that would normally be barriers to us may not be so for the infected – so always keep your wits about you, regardless of your location.

#13 Underestimation is a dangerous mistake to make – It can be easy to misjudge the capabilities of the undead due to their defining characteristics – zombies are generally slow, lumbering creatures with a definite absence of brain-power. Therefore, dealing with a solitary zombie does not seem so daunting. However, do not forget that the real threat lies within the zombie masses – they do not prey on each other and, when in crowds, they essentially function as a single unit with one objective – the consumption of human flesh. Together, their capabilities can be overwhelming and have devastating effects – bear this in mind and don’t be outnumbered.

#12– Treat recently bitten individuals with extreme caution – if a member of your party is unfortunate enough to receive a bite wound from an undead foe, you must monitor their condition thoroughly over subsequent days. It would be advisable to put them out of their misery sooner rather than later, although like many other tasks, this is easier said than done. Their actions and personality may alter dramatically as the infection takes hold and any erratic or reckless behaviour on their part may put others at risk so it may be worth keeping them in quarantine to avoid this. It has been suggested that cutting off the affected limb immediately after receiving the bite may spare your companion from a zombified fate, but the chances of this being the case are very slim. It is also important to be wary of injured individuals that you may happen upon during your travels, for they may conceal the nature of their wounds.
