Yikes, Zombies!

I can't believe this is my third post on Zombies! It's really starting to get creepy when the CDC issues a Zombie Warning!

Social Media: Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse


The following was originally posted on CDC Public Health Matters Blog on May 16th, 2011 by Ali S. Khan.

There are all kinds of emergencies out there that we can prepare for. Take a zombie apocalypse for example. That’s right, I said z-o-m-b-i-e a-p-o-c-a-l-y-p-s-e. You may laugh now, but when it happens you’ll be happy you read this.

Zombies Ahead

In a town right on the North Carolina and South Carolina line, someone apparently tampered with the road signs. Investigators don't know if the signs were hacked remotely or at the scene.

One sign read "Zombies Ahead" and then flashed "Watch for Hunters." On the other side of the road, a sign warned motorists to "Be alert for Tanks."

There have been no reports of zombies. Or tanks.
