Zombie outbreak is often conclusively seen as fictitious until the year COVID-19 struck and killed thousands of people in the world. 

What always caused the outbreak of zombies in most movies is regularly directed at the virus. This virus does not only kill human beings, but it makes them to spread the virus rapidly through biting others. 

Nonetheless, scientists have argued firmly that there is absolutely no virus that can trigger off the outbreak of zombie. 

This argument seems to be proven wrong, especially as we saw what happened in the year 2020. What caused COVID-19 was the same virus. 

To crown it all, the experience people have in zombie outbreak is equally the same experience people encounter during COVID-19. These experiences range from closure of businesses to total city and town lockdown. 

For those who have already watched zombie movies can testify truly that zombie outbreak caused intense city and town lockdown. 

The fact that zombie outbreak will one day happen is staring at us in the face. If, however, zombie outbreak happens today, one question that people might likely ask is: what are the things to do? 

Zombie outbreak: 10 things to do to survive

1: stay calm and observe what is actually happening:

The first thing you should do during the immediate zombie outbreak is to outrightly stay calm and observe what is happening around you. 

When you notice that people are running around, screaming and yelling for help, you will be scared. Therefore, fear can impair you to take or make a bad or poor decision. 

This is the right and appropriate time to carefully plan because of this period. This is the right and appropriate time to carefully plan because at this period, running to somewhere can directly put you into serious danger. 

Information is powerful and needful. Gathering all information you actually desire will help you make a good decision. 

2. Look for a safe place:

A safe place that will provide shelter to you is very important during zombie outbreak. Examining your own house should be the first thing and first action you should take. 

Check your own house. If it has a strong door, which cannot be easily be pushed open. Check for availability of water. 

How long can it sustain you? The window: is it strong enough to withstand a great push from external force? If, however, your own house cannot provide you with these necessary things and protection, then it is time for you to seek or find another place that has those things. 

3: gather food and water:

The thing you need most is the food. Gather as many as you can. Just as we previously disclosed, water is not the only important thing. 

It is completely necessary for you to have it. Therefore, gather both food and water. The ostensible reason for this is because during zombie outbreak, shop or stores are always unavailable. 

Do not store food that require to be kept in refrigerator. A lot of things will happen at this period. One of the things which will happen is power outage. 

Consequently, you do not need food which will be stored in a refrigerator. 

4: Emergency supplies:

Storing water and food is not the only thing to do. There are several other things that are extremely useful to keep. Therefore, having emergency kit will be necessary at this critical point. 

Other important useful supplies include flashlight, soap, clothes, bag for the purpose of storing your possession or belonging, phone, battery, power or hand-crank radio. 

5: Stay away from unnecessary contact with people:

If you perhaps forget something and desire to go and get it, always stay away from unnecessary contact with people. 

This reason is because virus spreads from one person to the other. Apart from that, people who are infected by the virus are often violent, attacking normal humans and thereby spreading the virus more. 

Observe people critically before you spend a lot of time with them. It is so because a person can be normal now and in a few minutes becomes deadly dangerous to you as the virus spreads rapidly through his or her system. 

If the virus spreads faster through unchecked contact, avoid unchecked totally.

 

6: Establish communication plan:

Communication is essential during zombie outbreak. Remember, a lot of things may happen which can lead to separation from family, friends and loved ones. 

There will be absolute network disruption too. Therefore, try and establish or create routes on how to keep contact with other people who are your family members, especially those who are not with the virus. 

Always listen to your radio. There may be news about vacating those who are not infected to a safe place. Do not fail to go among the people who are apparently not infected by the virus. 

7: First aid:

Zombie outbreak is known to have great impact on hospital. Often, hospitals are closed. Doctors are not immune to the virus too. 

Consequently, when doctors are also infected, who will treat who? This is where learning via first aid becomes profoundly paramount and useful. 

Learn gradually how to treat yourself when you have minor wound or cut from falling down due to running away from one of the infected person. 

Learn how to clean your wound and appropriate application of bandages. Do not forget to keep your first aid kit in a place where you can easily get it without struggle. 

Things that need to be in your first aid kit are sterile bandages, gauze, adhesive tape, antiseptic supplies, glove and other and other required and needful items. 

8. Do not take dangerous decision:

During zombie outbreak, there will be great anxiety and calm and quietness. Noise will also erupt from different places. 

This noise may emanate from a person who is being attacked and bitten by a zombie person. Do not run outside in attempt to rescue the person. 

Such attempt and decision will cost you your own life. Instead, stay calm in your secured and protected location. Do not open the door simply because someone knocks repeatedly at your door. 

Examine the person thoroughly through the door keyhole before you open. Make sure the person is not dangerously armed. It might enter your room and see what you keep for yourselves, such as food, survival kit, and other necessary things. 

And then decide to kill you so as to greedily claim those items to himself only. Avoid taking risky and dangerous decision.

 

9. Evacuation plan:

Having an emergency evacuation plan is important during zombie outbreak. The reason for this is because a fire outbreak can occur, or a crowd of people infected with the virus, or perhaps those who have eventually transitioned into zombie may be much at your door or window attempting to push it down. 

Always plan ahead. If the window breaks and zombie rush or batch forcefully in, remember that you take the ceiling or another door as your exit. 

Do not remain stuck in your hiding place when you know very well that there is impending danger. Sometimes authorities may announce that they will soon drop a nuclear bomb in your area to kill all the infected zombie. 

Quickly seek for a safe route out of such environment so as to avoid the bomb.

 

10. Work together:

If you are with a group of survivors, learn to work together. Learn also to be a team and resolve any problem among yourself. 

To survive will be easy when you all work together. Do not separate yourself from your team. You do not know when zombie will attack unexpectedly. Do not be greedy among yourself. The time to show love is at this critical condition.
